I had to google "Goot"..

The Urban dictionary had this to say..:

goot​

Goot is a synonym for a mans Penis. This word had its origin in 1989 in Pittsburgh, PA at a local private school in the Bethel Park PA area.


Based on that, perhaps you need to get your prostrate checked out ?

It would probably be a good start to identify if the waster is just rainwater ingress (we've had some torrential deluges recently, so blocked drainage ducts from the heater air intake allowing it to flood in via the air channels would be a possibility)
If the water is coolant (coloured and with a sweet taste) then perhaps a leak on the heater matrix or pipes that supply it.
Hth.

Blocked drainage duct in the most likely, by a country mile.

A jug or water poured over the drainage points will soon show if there's a problem.

If they're working properly, the water should just run straight through the drainpipes.

Hello & welcome to this friendly forum.

As you've had the air vents replaced have you checked the rubber seals behind the rear light cluster?

Fwiw I'm all for helpful..

However encouraging a wry smile from all the regular contributors in response to an obvious keyboard slip, as well as proffering some valid suggestions for the OP (that everyone else would probably find dull & uninteresting) to consider doesn't seem too insensitive imho.

But hey, we all have different perspectives don't we.? If @Taylor128 returns to update the thread with their progress on identifying the cause, we may get a valid perspective on how useful or amusing the various replies posted have been.

I genuinely believe there should be love and gootwell to all, but soggy Mercedes carpets is not my area of expertise.
