I drove through a rain storm yesterday.... it didn't leak, but then again, it wasn't the heaviest rain either. I'm very optimistic.

Another trick is to keep your vent in the recirculate position when it is parked. It keeps things closed up a bit too.

I had a similar problem but mines was leaking from the backseat drivers side. I had to seal the leak from the inside of the trunk.

It leaked really bad today... Guess I was wrong again. Here's a picture. Is there any chance you can draw an arrow to the spot? I've tried and tried and tried to match that picture from the TSB to my car. I've asked four other people, and no one else can seem to match it. Thanks for any help.

It's where the cowl pieces and a-pillar match up. I'd just go over the entire length of all of the seams (it looks like you just did certain spots?). It's not going to hurt anything.

I told you get in there and just apply it everywhere! Don't forget to keep the fresh air duck closed ! Don't be shy spread it all over and get the seam good from end to end.

But, I am in the right spot? It is that seam that I already put a little sealant on?

If that corner in the picture is where the a-pillar, front and side cowl meet (it's hard for us to know exactly where that is since it is zoomed in so far; we can't see where that is in relation to the rest of the car), then yes.
