anyone have this issue? the hatch fills with water but i can't find out where the water is coming from. Also the passenger side floor is soaking. It used to be from the heater core but i just replaced that PITA. but now its soaked with water not coolant. Nothing else is wet inside the car or the hatch. the whole interior is dry. just the hatch filled with water keep having to pop the plugs underneath to drain it. And the passenger carpet actually had standing water in it.
 
no the heater core is good just installed it. and its not coolant on the floor its water from when it rains. I do have a sunroof so where are these tubes? It is just weird to me that nothing else is wet. the seats are dry the center console is dry just the carpet on the passenger side front and back even under the passenger seat.
 
Drain on the hatch. Pop the hatch remove the plastic fairings and make sure they are still connected through the inner quarter panels. Bet they are not. It is not the sunroof. You would notice moisture on the headliner. Also drain ports may be clogged causing it to back up. Leaves and other droppings get in the track and when not cleaned out can cause it to back up and leak.
