We have the same problem with a 2001 Camry which just started. It seems to be water, not coolent. I just got it all dried out and put back together, now its wet again after couple days of rain.

Answering because this topic doesn't have clear answers on the internet. Use a small bottle or hose and place some water on the roof. When the water is draining, try to check where it is falling. If you have no clear drain "drip" on the floor, the channel is blocked. Otherwise it can be a number of things: Door not closing tightly enough, leak somewhere eg, AC drain or other drainage channels blocked. If you have a sunroof it is more complicated.
