Water leak??
I'm sure the dealer can fix the leak(*) for you, but I did it myself. I removed the weatherstrip seal around each of the 4 doors, applied clear silicone RTV sealant on the metal edge, then carefully reinstalled each seal and made sure that it was pressed-on as far as it could go. The junction of each seal then had a gap (because each seal had shrunk in length), and I installed each one so the gap was in the middle of the bottom edge and filled the gap with silicone and covered the gap with a piece of rubber tape. After it set up for a little while, I applied a small amount of sealant to the outer perimeter of each entire installed weatherstrip. It took several hours, but it was successful and should never have to be done again.
Good luck.
It'* too bad the seals weren't bonded to the door openings at the factory - that would have prevented them from shrinking and causing the leaks in the first place.

I had the same problem last year. The drain hoses from my moon roof were disconnected on both sides. After tightening the plastic trim around the door frames and a week of trial and error, this was the problem. PITA!!!!! I had to take my whole back seat out since it was soaked too.
Muslimsteel, you might want to check the bottom of your back seat. If it'* soaked it'll never dry unless you take it out (and fix the leak of course)
