  1. Greetings from Cape Town. Same problem with water in the front and rear passenger footwells. I tore everything out and looked everywhere that others had mentioned to no avail (although I'm taking all precautionary measures before I reassemble !). I should add that this is a 2006 Disco 3 rhd. 2.7 tdv6. The sunroof drains were fixed in January so I started under the bonnet and worked my way up using a watering can. No leak until I got to the roof rack channel (not sunroof) when water appeared in the wiring channel at the foot of the passenger door running through to the back. I went all around the dash area without luck until I saw a trickle of water running out from under the door seal at the bottom of the door. I'd always replaced this seal when I closed up at night. I pulled it away from the frame et voila! Water was trickling out of the spot welded seam on the A pillar that the seal sits on. There were rust stains on the edge down to the bottom of the door. The main entry point is about 1 " up from the bottom of the A pillar airbag. This is actually an 'intentional hole' and I therefore have to assume that water finds it's way along the roof rack channel and down inside the external plastic trim. I read somewhere that there is a hole under the trim that can allow water in which then trickles down the inside of the pillar and which can be sealed (no info as to it's location). New clips and sealant are on order !!
