Was your car sitting on a downhill slope by chance?

if you ran any wires through that grommet behind the PCM it may be coming from there. I had my amp wire through there and I got puddles in the back seat floorboard pass side for a while and could never figure it out, I looked everywhere and did every trick I heard. Finally I took it in to get looked at by the big dogs and they told me it was that wire, the water just follows it down. It was even under the passenger seat, I was confused it was going all to the back and had no evidence in the front, but once I sealed it up with RTV I've never had a problem.

my car sat for two months and there was a puddle in the passenger side rear carpet. I always park my car facing upwards on a hill, because thats the way cars are designed to shed water. This way no water sits in certain spots on the car. Its nothing serious unless water sits in there for a LONG period of time..... just take the floormat out, sponge out all the water and let it dry......... now you know water gets in there, so just keep an eye on it after it rains
