2002 bmw 530i 113 000 mi during a heavy or prolonged rain or carwash water collects on the rear interior floor boards.
Water in back seat floor bmw.
Just push back slightly on the front edge of the cushion about 6 in from the door.
Bmw seats are far easier to remove than most.
I have exactly the same problem with my 2014 f11 except my floor mat was soaked.
I took it in and the machanic tested t.
Water getting in car.
What i have found is that the water leak is actually from the front door and under the side carpet there is a ledge and the water runs along this ledge and ends up pooling in the rear of the vehicle.
After sitting in the back seat in rain to find the leak it seems that the water is seeping in through the top door seal down around the inside door frame an under the carpet in the rear left corner.
Repeat for the other side.
You don t want to remove the seat back just the cushion.
The reasons they cannot find the leak is that they are focusing too much on the rear door.
Managed to get a bit of the trim off today.
Sometimes i do it with my thigh with my knee on the floor but yours is wet.
The seats are not at all wet just the floor.
I ve since collected it and driven it for a week.

The car is parked on a slight incline so that the driver side is higher than the passenger side.
One is that the sunroof drains can get clogged.
I ve had the car back to the dealer who kept it for 4 days over the weekend and apparently stripped the car back and water tested it twice but couldn t find where the water was coming from.
I m parked in a level driveway.
At the same time pull up on the front lip of the seat.
Pulled up a corner of the front carpet and managed to pump quite a bit of water out probably a few litres.
Water in chassis pours into passenger rear footwell.
This happens after it rains.
The floor behind the passenger seat is soaking wet.
