Hey guys, so after reading through the various water leaking threads on the JK. I found myself looking around the places that might be the source of the water leak and, I looked to see if water originated from the cowl area, and for me that wasn't the case, along with some of the other notorious areas.
In my case on my 2012 JKUR I found that my hard top seal was pinched, and after being pinched for so long it became deformed. Therefore water appears to be flowing and making its way inside all the way to the passenger side front carpet area. I noticed this when I compared it to the driver side where the area in the top left corner (with the small little hole) that allows for drainage is completely dry while the passenger side was soaked with water droplets hanging towards the interior.
I will definitely be replacing the hard top seal later this week, but I also noticed a water line running through the interior door sill panel on the passenger side. Should I check anywhere else on the passenger side for possible leaking locations, other than from the cowl area, and the windshield gasket, as those parts seem to be in good shape and are not causing the leak.
Sorry for the rant, this leak is somewhat frustrating, I know its a jeep (my TJ still has water leaks till this day) trying to stay away from them with my JK as it is my daily.
Any other tips will be greatly appreciated!
