Default 2004 Z06 leaks

Rained here the last few days and I have realized that my car leaks. The driver's side floor board is wet, really wet. Are there any typical places these cars leak? I am afraid this is going to be really difficult to find.

Default window

I had this problem on both z06's ive had. It was my window seal. The water was leaking down from the pillar down to the footwell adn soaking floor (like flood).

Unfortunately, expensive. to properly fix need to buy new plastic, new metal rail with sealant on it. I bought new window seal for good measure.

The sealant between the plastic and metal retainer on the window cracks probably from heat and cold adn leaks. Can also make headliner wet but not always.

Take off all the paneling for sills and see if you can see water spot from drip down by footwell. Mine had it, but after it rains you can open it and also take a look

Hope this helps cause it bugged the **** out of me. Had to reupholster headliner cause the water ruined it

Went through same thing on mine, all new gaskets both sides plus had to seal rear window roof area as well. These can be fun to get fixed.
