    Well known problem on the 120 is caused by water leaking via the roof rack mounting bolts. Not sure if the 150 has the same system. If so remove and clean up around the mounts then a little neutral cure silicon under the bolt heads and re tighten. Did it to my 120 and no more leaks.

      Yea I've heard about the 120's also, Under warranty still so trip to Toyota. Will pull carpet back in the front and check it out. It had a new screen fitted, I'm wondering if it's not sealed properly and I was reversed in with arse end towards gutter running down hill. I'm wondering if it's ran straight through to the rear ?? I'm an hour from home so not sure if there is any moisture or condensation under there wether it will dry out before I get home and won't see any thing ???

        I'd go with roof bolts.

          With mine the seat belts were also wet when it leaked so that may be something to check to narrow down the source.

            Seal not applied around the windscreen properly.

              No wetness what so ever under the front carpets either side. My bet is roof rails. I'm waiting on a reply from previous owner as to wether he ever had a rack on it or the like.

                I also was thinking back and the roof was quite grubby when I got it the rest of the car was spotless. My bet it had a rack on it so was unable to clean it I would say or possibly just bad luck and decided to leak like the 120's did

                  Are the roof rails fitted?

                      Any marks around the plastic cover evidence of someone trying to remove the rails?
