strange puddles of water in foot wells?

Post by billymaya »

hi there as i havent moved the van in about 4 weeks due to the battery being flat,and what with all this ruddy rain ive noticed that i have a puddle of water each side in the footwells theres doesnt seem to be any dampness coming from anywhere u know a wet trail to detect where abouts its coming in,they are just puddles? any ideas? i do have some water coming from the driver side door step when opening the door?
