Check to make sure it's water and not anti freeze, if it is then the heater box is leaking...If it is just water then you have a bad seal around the windshield or the door seal is leaking..Check the seal around the door to see if it's torn or come loose. Maybe get in the car and have someone squirt the door area and windshield, with a garden hose, maybe you can see where it's come in at.

Do you have a sun roof ? if yes make sure water is not leaking from there, BUT if you don't have a sunroof then have a look under the car's body, there might be some rusty area of a hole under the body letting the water from the road to get in.

Hi,
This is of concern.....especially if no recent rain.
Your vehicle is covered by warranty and should be checked by your local BMW dealership.
If there has not been any rain, but your floor is wet....it's possible your heater radiator core (radiator) under the dash, is leaking.
Seek immediate attention.
Cheers,
