I had this problem after I had my windshield replaced, apparently the glass guy didn't seal the weather stripping completely so water was getting in at the bottom of the windshield. It's pretty easy to find the problem, just push on the weatherstripping around the windshield and if it moves, put a little windshield glue/sealant (just ask for it at AutoZone) on it, and you're good to go.

I am dealing with this problem and I'm getting pretty sick of letting it air out. I have done a lot of searching but I cannot find a thread that has links that work. Does anyone have pictures of the body seam weld that failed? Or the grommet through the firewall? or the area under the cowl that has failed? I know about where they are, but I can't track them down.
For what its worth, it doesn't seem to happen when I'm driving or if I go through a car wash. It only happens if it sits, regardless of the angle (some folks said it only happened uphill or downhill). I have had the windshield replaced and I took the cowl off last spring to look for the leak, but I didn't see a failed glue seam. I find it odd that this problem never occurred until about my 9th year of driving it...
I'll appreciate any advice.
Nick
