Yea - remove his rear window wiper motor and send it to me.

Which pillar is it coming through?

Could it be a blocked drainage channel from the sunroof?

I told him to check the sunroof, but I thought the pipe was passenger side, or are there two? I'm pretty sure it's coming in drivers side.

I don't actually know, but I'd expect there to be two personally, one in each of the front corners. I'm sure someone else will pop along and confirm if that's the case.

Most cars with a factory tilt and slide sunroof have 4 drain tubes (One at each corner of the sunroof "Pan"). This is so it doesn't matter if the cars parked facing up hill, Down hill or side on to the slope, Water can still drain from whichever corner it accumulates in.

Air filter by K+N, Exhaust by Japspeed, Brakes by Mintex......... And a scuffed rear arch by my sister. Huh

Correct the IS has 4 drain holes, all can be cleaned out using a length of strimmer wire. I've just done mine!!
