Drivers Side water leak??
 
Cleaning up the interior and doing some work and come to find out there is some water underneath the Drivers side floor carpet as well as under the drivers Side bin.

Doing some investigating you can see where it appears water is leaking in from towards the rear bins. The hose near the spot appear to be in good shape haven’t investigated to see what they are for or if this another route the water could be trickling in from.

Also not sure where the water under the Drivers Side Floor is coming from. I have checked all seals and weather stripping and they all appear to be in good shape?

Any Suggestions?

While you have things opened up you may need to put some water in the sunroof and make sure it goes down and out the drain tube.

Could also be a rusty sunroof pan - water may be getting through a rust hole near the drain hose then running down.

Tracking leaks like that down isn't easy, it will take some work. The way it's designed, the sunroof seal isn't perfect, water can get in between the sunroof panel and the car. There is a pan all around the sunroof that catches that water and directs it to 4 drain tubes at the 4 corners that run the water to the outside of the car.

If one is plugged or if there's a hole in the pan that will be a problem.
