Sorry - it is the black plastic thing at the lower edge of the windscreen and through which the wiper arm spindles protrude. There are clips that hold it tight against the windscreen but if some of these are broken or not pushed fully home then water gets in behind the cover, drips into the air intake for the ventilation system and finds its way to the cabin filter and into the passenger footwell. 2008 MY Java Black TDV8 HSE

I also had this recently- took in to my Indy and they cleaned out both sunroof drain pipes- about £35, fixed. |

It could also be the sunroof seal. |
