I have a water leak (pretty considerable) the little lady named it jeep creek. It happens whenever it rains hard or I wash the jeep or go through a carwash. comes out dead center on the drivers side floor, I run big rubber mats so it just pools there. just don't want to go into the fall or winter like this! Any ideas?

Luggage rack? Sunroof? Windshield?

Had that problem before and it turned out my windshield had come unglued across the top.

Take a waterhose to it while someone sits on the inside. It shouldn't take too long to find the source. Mine leaks a little so I took out the carpet and added drain holes.

derfinately pours in when I soak the cowl area, guess I'll have to open it up. Need to replace the wiper link bushings anyways

on my yj there is a drainage tube running parralel to the firewall from the cowl vent that was clogged up. Mine was taking in water passenger and driver side whenever it rained/was washed. i unclogged the tube and have not had the problem since.
