Water ingress in rear doors 2005 9N

Featured Replies

Maybe someone can help me with this.

Both my rear passenger doors are letting water in. When it rains a fair amount of water collects at the bottom and empties itself when the door is opened.

Recently -because I hadn't opened it for a while- it left a large white mark at the bottom of the door opening. Limescale probably, while getting it off I damaged some of the paintwork.

Is it as simple as changing the door seals? Does anyone know if they're easy to get hold of and replace?

Thanks.

I've found this. Is the water actually getting into the rear for you? Mine doesn't. Personally I just open the door every so often to let the water out. Though this isn't really a permanent solution

The water just sits at the bottom of the door where the door meets the car. It doens't actually get in as such but it is very annoying, as I say it left a giant limescale mark at the bottom of the door where it was sitting for so long and I damaged the top layer of paint when I tried to get it off. If these keeps on happening it will eventually rust, especially because of the condition of that bit of paint now,
