Hi all, I own a Holden Jackaroo 2000 model & with 3.5 Ltr petrol motor.
Where I live it has been very wet but the the other day my wife informed me water was coming in the top of the windscreen on the passenger side.
Then also I noticed the floor on the the drivers side front is also very wet.
I have checked heater hoses etc and the coolant level has not dropped.
Has anyone experienced this & what maybe the cause.

The urethane windscreen bond has let go. Get the windscreen replaced/resealed. most likely replaced, as it will be damaged/cranked getting it out.
Don't just run silastic along the top of the windscreen, as it will entrap moisture and create a potential corrosive environment.
Be wise as to who actually replaced the windscreen, so many fitters end up cutting the paint seal of the windscreen recess with knifes/blades in removing the old urethane seal and then becomes a bare metal environment for future rust development.
