I had a similar problem with a Subaru, and I had to resort to using a high pressure hose to find the leak. Mine turned out to be a crack in a metal panel inside the fuel filler door.
I then sealed it with some silicone-based stuff suitable for body work.

As the other poster said, you pretty much have to put a hose to the outside of the car if you want to find the spot.

If you have any paneling in the boot (trunk in the US), remove it and look around the trunk's metal sides for water trails in the dust, especially around the wheel wells, taillights, rear window, etc. My 93 Sentra leaked somewhat from the joint between the top of the wheel well and fender side, although only when driving in the rain.
