Pulled the left side card off, cleaned up 80% of the butyl, closed the door and tried to sim ran from above with the hose. Water definitely getting into the door and finding its way to the inner skin, amd from there I assume down the back of the vapor barrier and into the car. Again though, I don’t know what is normal for water intrusion into the door. I can’t imagine it’s fully water tight at the window seals, etc.
“As long as I’m in there…” I’m also contemplating finally replacing he plastic seal around the small triangular window. It could be related as mine are deteriorated, and I’ve had new pieces for both sides sitting in my storage space for a few years. The job seems super painful, but now that I’m 50% of the way. I recall a write up somewhere here from some enterprising soul who tackled this several years ago. Hopefully I can find it.
You can see water on both the inner and outer door skin below. There were a few other location where it was clearly dripping down as well.
