Default Water pooling on floor, rear passenger side.

Hi,

I am new to this website and I thought I would ask this question before I go to the dealership. I have a 1996 ES300 and when it rains hard, I get water pooling on the floor on the rear passenger side. Has this happened to anyone here? If so, how can I fix it?

Thanks

It;s either leaking from the main main door seal of the rubber boot (with the door wires) that goes through the B pillar. Check everything for rips or looseness.

I had a similar problem with my 98 ES300. Mine was caused by a stopped up sun roof drain

afang +1
or leaking window [asg+1]
or leaking seal between front/rear windshield[usually front] and pinchweld [me+1]

the sun roof drains [2] are fairly easy to solve, just careful not to get stuff into the interior during the cleaning. its easy, i say again -- especially if u can use compressed air like a mechanic would have ability to do.

Default Leaking sun roof

Thanks everyone for helping me. My sun was leaking and dripping on rear floor and down rear pillar. I found the front drains but could not find the rear ones..I ripped out the trunk carpet and side & rear covering. I found my sun roof drain tube clogged & kinked. Mine was on the left side just after the rear tire (clear soft plastic tube 1/2") went to lowes & replaced it. I also shoved weed wacker cord up to be sure it was clear all the way up to the sun roof. I pored water in the channel. It flowed right out. I will say I did not want to use compressed air as the hose is real soft and I was afraid it would come off and then I would have to remove the head liner. Hope this helps you

Can someone help me? I have a 97 es300 and found my tube kinked, clogged and completley removed. I want to replace it with a new one but do not know where it is connected from and connected to. Pictures would be much appreciated and hopefull solve this pooling problem. Oh, also does this go the same for both sides as I only found one tube.
