Water pooling on door sills

Postby roy666 » Thu 17.10.2013, 22:40

Hi... does anyone have the same problem - water pooling on the door sills. I trying to find out if the leak is the top seal above the windscreen.. so the water runs along and down. Or would it be the post seals down the side of the windscreen. How do you stop these frustrating leaks anyone?? ta

I've got the same problem, pooling on the rear of the sill and recently also spilled over on to the area behind the driver's seat. I had new A pillar, intermediate and falling pillar seals fitted 6 months ago and have no visible leaks so its a bit of a mystery so I'd also appreciate any advice.

I have the same worst at the front - they made the lip on the S2 higher so that it doesn't run in... as much!

I thought I read that there should be some nicks in the seal to let it out - Checked this evening and couldn't find any.

I can't find the windscreen drain either.

I think the details about the nicks in the door seals were in a service bulletin
