Yesterday it rained a lot, the car was parked leaning slightly down and to the right. The car was dripping wet on the right inside under the plastic panel and all wires was underwater. The only thing not working is the remote control meaning I can not open the doors unless I use the key.
But where can the water come in. I have had the car (Disco 3 TDV6 HSE year 2005) for many years and never experienced this before.
Any good ideas where the water can come in?
PS! Got rails fitted 6 months ago, but I can't image that water can come in there?

I would guess the Black Plastic on the windscreen pillar. Had water leaking in on both sites...
Apparently never raining in the UK hence LR did not detect in testing

Do you have a sunroof?
If yes, check the drain holes. They can get blocked causing water to get inside the vehicle. The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...

I found out that between the two doors are a black plastic thing there the electic cables goes through. That one was not 100 % fitted and the water came in there slowly
