Default Rain problems!

I don't really know how but my Sixer is soaked inside. And only the back floors, and the passenger floor a little. I dont really know how that happened. And I can't see where the water came from because everything else is dry but the floor. The water probably came from below but I don't really know how could that happen. Anybody any ideas what to do and stop this happen again?!

There is a TSB about this, TSB 07-14-06, 2005-2008 mustangs. Not sure what year yours is but maybe something similar is happening. Most likely its coming in from the front passeng kick panel/SJB area. Search the forums, there are a lot of posts about this.

Back on topic to the vehicle at hand and not a turd S197

I've had the same problem once before, out of no where the passenger back floor was wet. I replaced the weatherstriping that starts at the 1/4 window between the door and it stopped, not a single problem since. It's basically the weatherstirp on the body of the car itself, not too expensive and easy to put in.

NO, definately not, considering my sixer has more money in it than an S197 would have cost. Or the fact that I own 2 New Edges, both of which are faster than an S197.

My paint job cost half what your whole car did, driving an 08 v6 doesn't make you baller, hate to break it to you. Have fun with your bug deflector, it's not a damn truck.
