Check the scuttle panel and the inner arch liner isn't full of leaves blocking the drainage channel

i have cheacked all of this i have even sealed down the side of the windscreen..

does anyone know where the drainage hole is for that pannel??

Have you taken the arch liner off the car?

I seem to remember the exact same issue in a previous thread, and there was a solution. Hopefully someone who remembers more than I do will post.
