R50/53 Rain in the car (never happened before)
Rain in the car (never happened before)
It started raining today, which I was expecting. Drove to work, didn't notice anything. However about 3 hours later when i went to get a snack there was water dripping off my rearview mirror and the front liner was wet from the windshield back starting at the drivers side. Unsure if there was water there when I drove to work as it was dark and I didn't notice. I checked the seals around the doors and windshield and they all seem sealed, the sunroof is also dry.
Nothing has changed reciently except the other night I hit a patch of black ice and slid around the corner and nailed my front drivers side rim on a curb at ~10mph and knocked my allignment out (did pull right, now pulls left)
Is it possible that it bumped something and that started letting water in? I'm thinking that it might only be happening when I am driving.

Start there and you won't be sorry as after that the fixes are more involved as it would then be the windshield seals.
But my bet is clean the drains and you'll be good to go.
