Water leak on passenger side

Water is leaking on the passenger side of the car. The water drops are landing at the blower motor screw which is closest to the firewall. I checked the windshield area for leaves but didn't find too much. I also found some things to check during my search of this site. The car is a non-sunroof car, so I can eliminate that as a possibility. The carpet is out of the car right now, so I would prefer to wrap this up before I get it back in. Had the carpet not been out, I probably would never have noticed the leak. The A/C has not been used when it was leaking, so that can be eliminated as well.

Any ideas on what could be causing this leak?

Thanks

Are you SURE the a/c drain isn't plugged.

 

No, I am not. If the A/C drain was plugged and I am not using the A/C, could this still be the cause?

If the box was full of water. But you'd know. The sloshing would be terrible.

Also, check around the windshield. (where my Eclipse leaks) and where the wiring harness for the passenger front door enters the car.

 

I just acquired the car about 2 months ago if that. I'll pay more attention for sloshing sounds. The car is pretty loud due to drivetrain modifications etc., so it is possible that the sound could be drowned out.

I'll try out the areas that you mentioned.

Thanks

Could be coolant from the heater core?

 

NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO lol...no smell of coolant!

 

Water pump leaking slowly and then dripping down the oil pan and ending up over there OR turbo coolant line on the head missing a crush washer or stripped would be my next guess.

and going into the car?

LOL nevermind I thought it was dripping on the ground by the firewall under the car.

Check the front windshield for leaks.

I think it was from working on it when it was raining. It was in a carport, but some water got into the engine bay. I have been rolling with no interior for days and we have had heavy rains. I have not encountered a drop of water in there since. I hope this keeps up!
