[T3] water issues


well it rained here pretty hard about two days ago. I had my squareback
parked on a hill(going uphill), on the right side(slight curve to road).

when i went to look in my car, I saw a lot of water on the floor on the
passenger side(some in the battery area)most alongside the seat. none under
the fron dash. I think the drain tubes in front are not the issue. is there
some other drain tube that could be clogged?

I noticed when I opened my drivers side door-that water poured out of a
drain tube at the bottom of the door-towards the front of the car. It poured
for a while-at least 10-20 seconds if not longer. I was thinking, "that is
pretty good, it means the drain tube is not blocked, unless there is one
towards the back of the door, which couldn't drain, and therefore the water
was just sitting in the door?

When I opened the passenger side door-this did not happen. This door
actually has a hole in it near the front where a previous owner had
installed a speaker. this speaker has been removed-so i could see inside the
door-and it looked fairly dry. when I opened it some water could be seen-but
very little. not even enough to drain out the front.

sorry if this is confusing-here is the simplified version:lots of water on
passenger side floor-I am looking for suggestions as to where it may be
coming from?

thanks
