Stick a finger in and taste it. No, seriously. You'll know instantly if
it is coolant.

Driver's door seal is the most likely cause. Has the car got a sunroof?
If so, check that water's flowing out of the drains freely. The seal
isn't intended to keep water out, so the tray has a drain in each corner
which should empty down towards the sills.
Where's the cabin air intake on a 9k? If that's round there, check the
drains from that are clear, too.
If the windscreen's recently been replaced, then it may have been badly
sealed, too. Or the A-pillars are rotten...
