This is a good suggestion. I had a similar problem in my wife's BMW 325i with water intrusion into the passenger rear seat footwell. I sat inside while she sprayed the car with a hose and we found that the passenger rear door seal was leaking. Seal appeared to be in good condition visually but obviously was not making a good seal. Never would have found it any other way.
