DAMN IT! WE LOSE AN HOUR!
man, i'm definatly going to sleep. hope it works out droo, and definatly get to that carpet ASAP. 2night will be hell, trying to get it out as it rains... and you'll also want a buddy to help. You may only have to lift the wet part of the carpet up, and drop a humidifyer in the car if you have one, or just a fan i guess. but you definatly don't want any mould in the car.. bad air to breathe man.


BF, the 'audiforums.com' blended into the car looks really cool. and the tire too

ok this morning i just checked the drainage. It seems to be clear. I got a cup of water and poured it into the hole under the sun roof when it was opened. and I can see the water coming out the hole at the hinge area. so now im clueless.

I noticed it the first time you posted. I wondered how you got the tire sig... very subtle.

i had a similar problem with my old car and i dont even know if my audi has this but with my old car it was a piece of rubber that covered a lock on the body of the car.. if that makes sense? nothing would get wet but the floor..

i had this same problem it i you have installed anything through the firewall its prob that if you open you hood look to the right in the back there is a black rubberseal mine was not put back after somone installed my **** from best buy. If you look where your foot rest is on next to the clutch you will see that it is leaking there if its not that its prob the sunroof

How come everybody kept saying b pillar, singular... umm, like you stuffed paper towels in your b pillar... checked the base of the b pillar and it was dry... you check the other side? like imola said, path of least resistance... it would leak down one, without leaking down the other. But yeah, i'm with most other people, in guessing sunroof is the cause. And check meant a de-humidifier. :P hahahaha

lol... c'mon, fight water with water right?
mmm, we assumed it was coming from one pillar... cause he noticed water coming from one pillar.

the only other cause i can think of if it's not the firewall mentioned eariler, is the AC leaking... don't know dick about this, sorry bud

BF, i can only see the tire and the audiforums.com glare... what else is there?
