Axel, Like Matt said the best way to check the rust out is to pull the seats and carpets. Pull the plastic plugs on the inside of the rocker panels and see if they are filled with leaves, all the leaves that go into the air intake in front of the windshield wind up in the rocker panels, which can back water up into the interior. The other source on wagons is the rear side cargo windows, rust and crud build up under the gasket and wick water into the car, and yes a leak near the front corner of that window will end up under the carpet behind front seats, ask me how I know. Good luck!
