Help! Water leak rear left side Door
I have pretty much ruled out a door vapor seal problem A week ago after a few days of rain noticed the rear right side passenger floor was wet. I poured a bottle of water this afternoon and pretty much ruled out a door vapor seal problem and I think my problem is from my door/door seals It just rained so I went to check on my car and the pictures are attached from what I found The seal on the body of the car is wet between the white lines, its not wet on the other side of the car and there are a few drops of water on my seat. What is causing this problem? The seals on the body or door? any ideas would be appreciated |

Do you have a sunroof. Drains are probably clogged.

I do have a sunroof, I'll look into it in the morning and hopefully it'll save me a trip to the bodyshop

Just to note when I pour water where the top right door and roof, in the channel where they meet, water leaks through. That is why I did not consider a clogged Sunroof channel, not sure if it helps narrow down a possible problem

Check the round rubber flaps that cover the bottom of the sunroof drains. They are located underneath the car about 16 inches behind each front wheel. You have to get down on your hands and knees to see them. Mine were pretty clogged with road grime. It's easy to do and could be the issue.

I recently had a similar issue, front passenger side was a pond. It was clogged , kinked sunroof drains. Had them pressure blown out and now it's fine. I live in Oregon. Talk about rain. Good luck

I don't know who fed you that shit, but water on top of your seats, is not a vapor barrier issue. Do you even understand simple concept of water not being able to jump sideways through your door panel.
Unless you mean door seal. In which case possible if the seal is shot on top.
