Wet Floor in Drivers Space
I live in Florida and apparently when it rains I encounter my drivers space floor soaked. I know is only when it rains because when its sunny is perfectly fine, Even when I wach my car. I dont know from where is coming what so ever. For now what I ve done is putting a large towel at the floor so it picks up the moisture and put 2 set of floor carpets.
Any suggestions, ideas or a possible diagnose for this?
Thanks!

One possibility is the sunroof drain tube for that corner. It runs down the windshield pillar & out, so maybe the hose is moved out of it's proper position. I can't get the parts pictures right now, so can't be more specific.
Since it doesn't happen when you wash the car, but only when you drive, how about a leak through the floor? Only comes from water spraying up from the front wheel. Peel back the carpeting and/or have a good look from underneath the car.

Most of the time the tube/drain valve gets clogged and just needs cleaning - "A" in the picture.
Some will use a compressor and blow air into the tube to try to clear it. Some will feed something soft (like weed eater string) down the tube to try to clear it.
Not sure on the 6th gens - this works on the 3rds - sometimes you can remove the plastic inner wheel well liner and get to the valve where it "pokes" thru the sheet metal - then clean the valve from that side.
