Title: Possible leak?
Post by: Logie on 15 August 2005, 10:49

The first picture you can see where that was a hole, and i have sealed it. I was washing the car Sunday, washed it many times before and its never leaked. But i noticed the leak stright away. And seen this hole in the door seal at the bottom. Will it leak into the car, if the seal has a hole in it? Just want to make sure before i start tearing the car apart!

This is the hole sealed

This is were the water was going. It was only a trickle, and the carpet was hardly damp.

I think it would only let in a very small amount of water. But if your concerned then replace the rubber seal.

Yea it was only small. It didnt leak in the rain, only this time when i had the hose on it. I dont get condenstation in the car in the rain (Unless there people in the car ;) ). I just wanted to confirm really if that hole WOULD of let water into the car. Will test it later.

 Bored in work and its nagging me in the back of my mind :p

I wouldent worry about it really. That bit of the rubber tends to wear away because the door card clip cathes it.

if you dont wanna replace the seal. Take the seal off and put it back on so that the hole is in another location.

that small leak will cause rust. sort it aat' son :wink:
