In the last week or so , after heavy rain , water has got in on the driver's side foot well - looks like it is running down from under the dashboard but I can't be sure. The windscreen seal looks tight with no obvious cracks or gaps - any other places it could be getting in ? If it is the windscreen is it a case of getting a windscreen specialist to refit it with a new seal ?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Ever build K11 low modulus mastic, might be worth a try before you strip the windscreen out.
