I'm experiencing a wet passenger floorboard during and after rains, even after scouring all the related threads and performing all the checks and potential fixes. Originally, I had a wet pax floorboard along with an occasional drip of water from the top of the windshield by the rear view mirror and some wetness on the interior A-pillar trim. So here's a summary of what I did to address:
- Resealed the windshield with sealant on both body and glass sides of moulding. This fixed the water drops coming from the top of the windshield during turns.
- Did the bike tire mod on the sunroof seal/moulding. This seemed to fix the A-pillar wetness.
- Checked and cleared sunroof drains. All 4 seem to be draining just fine, pulled kick panel interior trim and couldn't find and signs of kinking.
- Checked AC condensation drain. Drain goes through firewall as designed, no wetness around seal. I get a puddle of condensate under the truck at the firewall, as designed.
- Checked rocker panel drains - rocker panel free of debris (I think) and plugs are all in place.
This is driving me nuts. The floorboard gets wet either while driving in rain or after rain when roads are wet and if the truck is parked during rain. I guess the only other thing I can think of is the front passenger fender was removed, repaired and replaced by a body shop about a year ago. I had never had any leak issues before that. For those who have taken the fender off, can you think of anything that the shop may have messed up when reinstalling? Any seals, panel gaps or trim that I can check? Any advice would be appreciated!
