Hi all,
I saw a reply about the possible leak on the passenger side floor that it might be a cabin ?? something that needs to be resealed?? But has anyone had problem with water builiding up in the doors??? I was looking for a recall possibility on this but no luck. It's a 2000 monte carlo. any ideas?

There are drain holes in the bottom of the doors.They tend to clog up over time with dirt,leaves,etc.Open the doors,lay on the ground and look up at the bottom of the doors.They can usually be opened up with a small screwdriver or stiff wire.If they clog again,pull the door panels and clean out the inner doors with a shop-vac.
 
If the passengers side carpet is wet,it could be a leaking heater core,if it is anti-freeze you are seeing.If it is clear water,I would suspect the drain hose for the AC condenser is clogged.My 2000 Monte Carlo had that problem.The hose is on the firewall under the hood in front of the glove box area..It is about as big as your pinky and bent at 90 degrees.You can pull it off to clean it out,and then just push it back on.When I did this on mine,over a quart of water ran out. Have fun!!!!!!!!
