Passenger Side Water Leak!

before posting, I checked FAQ and searched for past forum postings.

I have had a water leak for a month and it got to the point last week where it was an actual PUDDLE that would move fore and aft between right rear footsill and forward one.

Driverside vent is not problem. The drive shaft tunnel keeps it to passenger side.

I have checked rear drain tube and drain that runs through trunk. No obstructions.

Sun roof felt OK. Little gap, but nothing concerning.

So what am I left with?

Please Help! I do not want a flinstones car in a few months:)

    Passenger Side Water Leak!

    On my 240 it was missing the rubber washer that surrounds the windshield wiper motor driveshaft. Led to exactly what you describe.

    I've also heard of AC leaks doing this in a 240. I know very little about how 740s are set up, hope this at least gives you some ideas.
