Same problem here, blocked drain under the scuttle to inner wing full of leaves. The water runs over the back of the battery and finds a way in behind the main junction box behind the glove box. I had the back of the car up for some time, and when the rain came, I had water in the battery tray. |

Hi, this is a long shot for your leak, but, I had a car some years ago which filled the spare wheel well in heavy rain. When parked with the front facing downhill, the front footwell was soggy. Two reasons, the rear lights leaked into the boot, and spilled over and ran under the carpet to the front. Also I eventually found the heater matrix under the dash was also leaking. I only found the source as I smelt it on a hot day after opening the door to climb in. I note that in one of the Forum electrical problems the rear fusebox has melted the circuit board due to water ingress at the rear. If you have a sunroof, also look at the drains splitting inside the A and B posts. |

If you have a Sun roof check that the drain tube is still attached. |

As posted above, the sunroof drainage is always a good place to start.
