just picked up my newly purchased 325sport.
decided to have a good old root around to see what needs to be done first etc etc.
i pulled up the carpet in the front passanger foot well as best i could to have a look all seemed perfect until i felt damp. turns out the cushioning underneat has turned into a sponge.
dripping wet. back is damp but not half as bad as the front.
any ideas where i should check, what to look for.
anyone else have a similar prob.
havnt had a chance to get it over a pit yet.
cheers.

does your car have a sunroof, could be the drainage holes that are clogged up?!?!

I had same problem, drainage holes in sill clogged up, some wire poked about did the trick.

As a matter of interest how do you get to the s/r drainage holes to unblock them.
There have been a few threads on this recently so I put it on my to do list.
Had a look the other day but couldn't see any holes.

There have been a few threads with good photo's (someone will probably be able to search and find them) but basically, slide the sunroof back, and looking down at the sunroof opening from outside, you should see a small(ish) drain hole in each corner of the roof - watch out though, the bodywork around them can get a bit rusty!
