Rug wet on passenger side '03 Tundra

#1 (**permalink**) 05-21-2008, 03:40 AM

Hello,

Please help! I had the windshield tested for leaks and it passed the test.
The water only occurs when it rains. The Truck does not need to be moving
for the water to appear. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Best regards,

RG

It might be water coming in that runs off the hood. If you have a
sunroof, you could have a leak there. The water can run in many
different places from a sunroof leak. You might also be getting water
running from the door.

Hello Jeff,

I do not have a sun roof. It appears to be dripping from under the dash
near the fan cover. The water accumulates on the rubber floor mat near the
top of the floor mat. What is strange is that the water comes in without
the truck moving ;^(

On a dry day, have a fun with a hose, until you find it. You might have
a drain that clogged, causing it to overflow into the cabin.

Check the grommet where the antenna wire passes through into the passenger
compartment to make sure it is properly positioned.

I took the dash apart and found one cowling clip that clips inside the
passenger compartment. That is where it was leaking. I had to remove the
fan assembly to see it.

Thanks for the update and results. I'll try to remember for future
reference.

I think one of your passengers is suffering from incontinence.
