Leaking windows!!

[wayders]

Hey peeps, could anyone help me with this problem i have/ Everytime i get jet washed i get water coming in the windows, it seems to be coming in the top front corner, iv already replaced the rubbers that run across the top of the doors, which other rubbers do you think need replacing? Many thanks.............. M

Stop using the jet wash.
Do it by hand!!

The tolerances in the window frame from todays cars and yours is massive, means that it'll leak all the time with the jet wash, to much pressure in todays washers compaired to 25years ago when the car was built.

Hi there,

Where did you get your replacement door rubbers from?? there is a 2mm gap on my Mk1 from the top of the window to the roof seal!! the window will not go up ne further arrrggghhh, I have 2 frogs and some Koi carp living behing the passenger seat after our summer!

Cheers

where does the water lie? windscreens always a beggar but not where you have said... got all seals here mate in good fettle if you get stuck...

It runs in between the window and seal you can see the gap, the rubbers arent split but have taken the shape of the window and shrunk leaving the gap I fink, the water comes to rest behind the passenger seat. Make sense??

Thanks for the reply

Do you have all the roof seals? F & R? Mine is a MK1 '84. If so how much?
