I have recently noticed a small patch of wetness/dampness on the floor of my golf on the passenger side!i have mats down but the mat does not seem 2 get wet underneath the mat it is occuring! so i guess its not the seals on the door or sunroof as the matt wud get wet? am i right if thinking it is coming from underneath the car? it is also damp wen it doesnt rain so any ideas wud be much apprieciated??x
I had the same problem with my '05 QX56 after heavy rain. It seems that the sunroof drainage hole was blocked, allowing the water to overflow the drainage channel. I diagnosed the problem by opening the sunroof after I opened the door to see water dripping on the passenger floor. Once the sunroof is rolled back, look for a puddle of water in the front corners of the sunroof drainage channel. I solved the problem with a zip tie I found in my glove compartment.I had the same problem with my '05 QX56 after heavy rain.

No,What year,make and model is your vehicle Carol,when the heater core leaks,it will be the driver side floor board that gets wet,are you using your A,C,Theirs a hose on the passenger side that the A.C. drains to the outside ground,could of came loose,it's on the passenger side.
I have a 2005 f150 just notice that the driver and passenger side mats are wet. I had my windshield replace almost a year ago and went back recently to have them recheck the seal. What else could t be need help
Have you been adding any coolant? You could have a leaking heater core, which will usually leak to the inside, wetting the carpets in the well. Most American cars locate the heater core on the passenger side of the firewall, so a leak will typically show up on only the passenger side floor. I once had an Audi that had the heater core mounted just about dead center on the firewall. When it started leaking, both sides of the well(s) got wet.
Is it possible the water is actually coming from the A/C evaporator case, whose DRAIN IS CLOGGED ? The water produced by the A/C then leaks out of the case, down under the carpeting, then depending how vehicle is parked, can flow to the rear floors and carpet. Hope this helps
