During the last two rains I have had rain water soak my poassenger side floorboards. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S10kN56BDN4 for the video I posted for Toyota to see. I went to a dealer here in Alberta they gave me a Technical Service Bullentin and told me that Toyota changed a seal set under the cowling, under the wiper blades. He said the part is only $22 and I can change it myself. They didn't offer to change it while the cowling was off, didn't offer to replace the cabin filter that was soaked, which I told them, didn't suck the water off of the floorboards...BUT they gave me a $101.64 invoice!!! Not even a kiss with that screw...I will look for this hose...mine is a 2006 Sport.

Guys,
 
thanks for the tips. My 2006 RAV4 had also this problem last week. Based on your suggestions I got the tube out of the floor; blew air in using a foot pump and solved the problem in no time!

Fixed Leak in Rav4 AC condensate water on the floor !! All it was - a plugged by spider nest or coocoon drain rubber hose. Apparently if it gets plugged (even partially) the drain water will find its way out through the blower fan assembly, which is right behind and above the center console.
 
Pull the hose out and either flush it or run a wire thru it.
