Water leak in front 2002 venture lwb
New to forum but long time 02 venture owner (but it new). Just started getting water leaking over parking brake on drivers side. Sat in car during rain storm and watched it drip. Nothing from roof (though overhead console does droop a little). While sitting during rain, I noticed it is also getting wet on passenger side by door. Couldn't find drip on passenger side.
I checked the air intake under wipers but didn't see anything that looked cracked. It leaks facing uphill/downhill or flat.
Any ideas? Thanks.
PS. Wife thinks it started after we ran over tire tread. But i don't see how rain would get in from anything under car.

thought it might be the roof rack so i pulled it off and re sealed it and it made no differnce I am hoping that somebody could point me in the right directon
thanks
Finally figured out where our leak was coming from after sealing the heck out of everything we thought the leak was coming from.. It was from 2 holes from the molding when you open your driver door and passenger door look right about where the windshield meets you'll see the holes that need sealer. We inserted a little piece of molding foam we had left over from a house project before sealing it.. Hope this solves your problem also.
