Water in driver side door.

[kamikazisosa]

This is my first posting and I hope someone can help me with my problem. Every time it rains or I wash my car, I end up having water seap into my driver side door. I hear it swishing around when I open or close the door and when I accelerate or declerate. I am dumdfounded about the problem and was hoping someone could give me some advice on how to fix the problem. Thank god I dont live in Seattle or else I would water in their everyday.

How does the seal around the windows look? Do you hear any clunking when the window is raised or lowered?

There are drain plugs in the lower corners of the doors. They are designed to let water out without actually being removed, but they can clog. Take them out and the clog will clear. Replace the plug when the water has drained. There is no way to keep ALL water out of the door. Don't be alarmed. Mine did this about a year ago. After clearing the drain, it' hasn't recurred.

Thanks for responding. The seal around the door does not look damaged and, I do not hear a clunk. The only seal that looks damaged is the one on the bottom of my wind shield. I wonder if water travels from their into my car door. It is damaged only on the drivers side .

Thanks for the info I will try this approach to the problem.
