    Hello, I have water leaking on the front passenger side of my Taco. After I bought it I noticed water going through my airfilter, once I repmaced the windsheild and noticed the other one was installed improperly everytjing seemed to be fine, but noticed it started to leak on the far right side now. The air filter is bone dry, but my question has anyone else experienced the same?

    I'd trace it to the source if possible. The side panels and weatherstripping are pretty easy to remove, at least that might give you a better indicator of where it's coming from.

    Do you have a sunroof? Ensure your sunroof drains are not plugged up. All sunroofs leak to an extent but manufacturers account for this with drip trays and routing the water to drains in the corners of the sunroof compartment. Sometimes debris (or ice) can cause these to clog. It's rare, but it can happen.

    Yes, I do, it was checked by the glass people and everything drains properly. I’m getting water when I’m washing it with a power wash or going through a carwash.

    Does it do it when it rains? If not, and how you say it happens with car washes, the. It could be the pressure of the water making a difference and forcing the weather stripping out of place? Just a thought… i have no experience with this.

    hope you figure it out!

    The 3rd Brake Light, Roof Rack, or Sunroof would be the usual suspects for water entry into the cab.
