Rear passenger seat floorboard damp
I discovered today accidently on my 2007 IS 250 that the rear floorboard on the passengers side carpet is a bit damp. Not soaked, but damp so I pulled up the mat to let it dry a bit. I came here immediately to see what it could be and saw the A/C mentioned, door seals and sunroof drains.
I cleaned the moldings although they look good and poured some water down the sunroof drains and they seem fine. I then let my A/C run for a good while here in Florida and after a bit there was a large puddle of water under my car from the evaporation. Could it still be a plugged drain?
It did rain hard yesterday here and I drove through it this morning also on the way to work. I do have the extended warranty that should cover it hopefully. Aggravating that here it goes with something else again!

I know it's simple, but are you sure the window back there was up all of the way? Even with my window visors, the VERY back of the window doesn't get covered by the visors if lowered even slightly.
By the way, grab yourself some Damp-Rid to help suck up the mositure back there or in the cabin in general.

yes it was up as the top of the floor mat was dry but underneath the carpet was damp and plastic on back of mat also showed water. the seats are dry also.
visors in the back seat? it's going in tomorrow so too late for damp rid. i haven't run the air in two days now, just the fan to help dry it.
