RE: [T3] more water issues

I don't think the water in mine could be from underneath, because I had it
parked during the last rainstorm, and still had the problem. i can't imagine
that much water splashing up from underneath a parked car.

I got the same rain as Kevin from Somerville. My issue is the rear passenger
side floor above the battery, just soaked. No water at all on the driver's
side. I have my door panels off and the door drain hole is clear.

Awhile back, I completely removed the deadening material and sanded/primered
in the rear cargo area. The deadening material was wet and fetid. During the
last rain, it was wet there again, I only have a carpet placed over so it
dries fast, but why wet there? Could it be from underneath?



Thank you,

Gary Gamboa
