I posted this same question on Saab Central and am hoping I can get some further help. I own a 1999, 9-5 and am getting rain water inside the car in 3 places. Water is coming down the cloth covered post between the drivers door and the windshield. Water is also collecting in BOTH foot wells in the back seat. The flat rug areas of both foot wells feel like sponges. Other have suggested that I have drainage holes that are clogged in the roof from a leaky sunroof. I very seldom use the sunroof. I have NO idea where the clogged drainage holes are located in the roof. I would appreciate ANY help in solving these leaks. I want to solve it before winter so the water does not freeze in the foot wells.

 

my issue isnt the front of the car, its water getting into the REAR foot wells.

where should i look for holes in this case??

 

I, too, still have not been able to solve the water leak in rear seat foot wells. From most of the dealer service managers and on-line forums, most people have stated that the problem more than likely lies with the rear sunroof drains being clogged with leaves etc. I have NO idea as to how the water finds its way into the back seat foot wells. My next approach to solving the problem is going to be disassembling the head liner above the rear seat doors to get at the rear roof drains. This needs to be done very carefully and methodically. Once I get to the drains, some have suggested using the largest diameter weed wacker line down through the drains to force the crud out of the bottom of the car. If you happen to find a solution to this problem, I would love hearing how you solved the problem. Good luck.

 

I have a 2004 9-3 Turbo Convertible. I just bought it and there is water gathering in the front and back passenger foot wells.

I see no water leaking through the convertible top.

any suggestions?

Thanks
