   The seal had come away on mine, it was like a monsoon inside.
   
   Replaced the seal and stuck it down properly and seems to be dry as a camels arse inside now.

   Get a hose and a torch and spray the windscreen with water, unclip the lower black plastic scuttle (not the long one that goes right across the bottom of the screen) that covers the wiper motor and make sure that water isnt getting underneath it, then running down the wiper arms and dripping into the blower motor opening, its easy to see cos the sorta foam filter type thing that goes in that opening should be bone dry if its wet thats your drivers side problem
