2002 1.9 - water leaks through rear door seal - Jamie1975
Has anybody found a water leak through the rear doors? Ours is leaking water round the door seal and collecting in a pool in the middle of the rubber. The door trim is then soaking it up (there is a tide mark) and making the car smell.

Any advice/previous experience gratefully received.

Thanks
Jamie

Hi. I had same problem with my 1.9tdi estate.

It is caused by the seal between the outside(wet) and the inside(dry) of the door.

It was done under warranty and explained that the sealant had failed. the door is divided

by a metal plate and sealed.

Guess it is a dealer problem though its tough, you are out of warranty,

cheers busdriver
