water is puddling in the driver floor area after 3 straight days of rain
 

After 3 days straight of rain, I noticed that my drivers carpets are drenched in water - no other area had a problem. I got the shop vac out and sucked it all up (probably the equivalent of 2 to 4 litres of water), but after 30 minutes the carpets were drenched again. I checked the roof liner and all is dry. I could not find any drip from under the console / steering aea. So I removed the side covers and pulled up the carpet and found the source (I think). I have two holes in the floor firewall near the hood release pull arm - two tubes (rubber) run through them which comje from the sterring console. I have no idea where they originate from the steering console - I also do not know where they go under the frame. I think water is leaking from the rim of one of these tubes. Does anyone know what these two tubes are (are they some sort of drain from the roof area)? By hand, I tried to pull the tube out from the hole in the floor firewall, but it is pritty tight.

Anyone else have this problem - what is the quick / easy fix?

Thanks

You either have a clogged/kinked drain tube from your sunroof or a leak from one of your marker lights in the front of the roof.

That happened to my wife's ML 320. It was going to be $1,700 to fix it. She duct taped the seals around the sunroof. :D That's one reason she traded it in on an H3 the other day, after removing the tape.:shhh:

Reasons I like not having a sunroof in my H2:

1 - No clogged drain/mold problems;

2 - Extra easy-access storage for cigars in the three compartments where the sunroof would be;

3 - I might survive the watermelon-sized hail that it sure to come soon with all the global warming climate chaos going on.

that's funny. Watch it before you get blaimed for the hail.
