Prelude Leaks Water

Got a weird problem with 1991 Prelude.

The drivers side carpet, and only the drivers side carpet gets wet during a
rainstorm.

1) The floormat is dry
2) The headliner is dry, not coming past sunroof
3) The seats and door panel.remains dry, not coming past door seal or
window
4) Trunk is dry
5) Car gets wet when at rest, no holes in the floorboard.


I've noted there are two drainholes for the sunroof in the forward corners
of the roof. What path is the drain line, and is it possible for that drain
to back up into the interior?

 

There is usually a water drain in the fresh air intake to drain away
rain water. Perhaps this drain is clogged?

I had the same problem with a different make of car. Like the other poster
said, I think you either have something plugging the HVAC ducts, or the
seals have a leak. For me, the rubber seal that joined 2 plastic ducts was
defective, causing leaks during an extended rainstorm. I had no leaks when
washing the car.
