I know this has been covered before, but I tried to search and couldn't find anything. The carpet on the driver's side is damp, and it's not from my shoes. Can some one 'help a brotha out?'

.... No leaky sunroof?
Maybe your window didn't completely seal when rolled up..
I don't know much about bmw's but look at your windshield seal, I know that my vw had a leaky windshield problem; took me weeks to find out what was happening. :shock:
P.S: My carpet is soaked right now because my window don't close all the way. Maybe you have the same problem. :oops:

my vote for windsheild seal.. I have the same problem when it rains hard. Only i get pools of water on my passenger side because i park my car on that sort of angle. I havent had a problem since our last rainstorm and the snow isnt causing problems so i am waiting until spring to fix it.Old and improved:

I would check your winshield seal, I had the same problem with my 325 except the passenger side was getting wet. I found a big crack in the windshield seal and sealed it with some silicone. Carpet never got wet again.

there is a dime sized hole the water drains through from the vents by the windshield wipers.
it is very hard to see... i needed a flashlight to see it.
my case was an extreme situation. i had tried just about everything anyone had ever suggested to no avail. i eventually stripped my whole interior to track it down. rust was not visble anywhere. but some way, some how, it had eaten away a lil chunk far up close to the dashboard... and my car is not rusty in the least bit.
chances are this is not your problem. but this just goes to show you anything is possible.
i would suggest taking up the carpetting on the side, and have someone drain water in the sunroof, or in the vent below the windshield wipers. hopefully you will see a trickle of water coming from somewhere.
