hi all, ive had a rather musty smell in the car this week, on further inspection, and helped by  heavy rain at the time, ive found a soggy front carpet and i can see water dripping down from the bottom of the fascia near to the obd port. 

has anyone else come across this problem or know what the cause is likely to be?

cheers

Have you got a sunroof ?

hi, yes i do have a pano roof.

I had this problem after having the windscreen replaced, they had to come and refit it.

Hmm..I'm still on the original screen with no signs of obvious damage. 

It's morph'd into a Land Rover why you weren't looking.

Could be a blocked roof drain, or screen scuttle drain.

yes, indeed, it turned out to be a blocked pano roof drain, the rubber outlet under the front drivers door (near the jacking point) was full of black crud and was back filling up into the car. a quick poke of a finger up the hole ( :'( ) was all that was needed to get it clear again, now to dry out the carpet and hope the smell goes. cheers all
