I've read a lot about ingress to passenger side and rear footwells but not to drivers side. Has any one had & solved this problem before?

Have you at least tried to search the forum about this? I mean come on, there are so many people who posted the solution. Search 'Water ingress' and tadaa..

It's a common error on VAG cars. It's coming through the pollen filter housing in the plenum chamber (engine bay).

Here's a few links:

On the drivers side also check the bonnet release cable rubber grommet on the bulkhead.

Have you at least read the original post?

The OP said he'd searched the forum. He's looking for info about the driver's side getting wet
