Wet Drivers Side Carpet/mat
 
Hey so I keep noticing that my front driver side carpet and car mat seem to be wet a lot of the time. I guess it could be from condensation from the air vent but I really havent used my air conditioning yet and my temperature is always set a 74. Has anyone else had this happen to them and can give me a some suggestions on whats happening and what I can do. Thanks

have you removed your door panels by any chance & remove that styro foam cover? if you did, you didn't seal it properly coz little water gets inside the door from the window outside & the styro should be seal properly to the door frame, if you noticed when you close the door, the panel sits on top of the carpet with the rubber seal. normally little water gets inside the door but there is a drain at the front corner of every doors. This happened to me, body shop fixed my door dent removed it but they didn't seal it properly

So it's not the sunroof drain because I ran water through it and it was fine. So yah I think it may be the door, I haven't removed the door but last year I brought it in for maitinence and the door was coming loose at the bottom so I had them put new clips on.

before removing the panel, ask a friend to water the window with the window close of course & open the door, now you look at the buttom of the door panel see if water is coming in between the panel & door.

So it's been raining heavy the last couple of day and I think that the leak is probably coming from the bottom part of the door. So do you guys think this is the vapor barrier and how would I check it
