first of all has the engines header tank lost any water if yes then poss heater matrix if not then you need someone to hold a hose pipe on the car as you look in side to pin point where the water is coming in from as it may be some thing like a window seal or a door seal or just a grommet that wants repositioning

If you have a sun roof it could be the drain hose on that side of the vehicle come off the metal tube from the metal roof appeture. I removed the trim on the drivers side window pillar inside the car and then managed to get the roof lining down a bit. You can then see the pipe. in my case it had slipped off. I refitted it using a fuel pipe type jubilee clip to hold it in place as the spring one was not man enough. Problem solved in this case. Hope yours is as easy.
