Rain water leaks
Hi, anybody out there who can advise me on an issue with leaking door
rubbers!. the passenger footwell is rather wet to say the least. I have a 2001 318i tourer.the leak,i think is comming from the hinge side just below window level. the rubbers look fine, the same as the other,watertight, doors, but i belive this is not an unheard issue,even with new cars, any ideas ? Cheers. roger , |

IIRC, the likely cause is a failed or loose door trim membrane. Remove the trim and check the membrane behind is properly sealed particularly around the bottom quarter. -- *Letting a cat out of the bag is easier than putting it back in * Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

Many thanks to Dave Plowman, on checking ,the door trim membrane was
unstuck and damaged around the bottom half, i have repaired and restuck, so see if that makes it watertight, again many thanks Dave cheers ,Roger. |
