I am getting some water in at the front corner passenger side. Roof has no holes - and the seals were renewed not long ago.
Any ideas on where to look ? :3Confused
Carpet stinks now - might have to drill some drainage holes :Hammer
I hate to say it but i\'ve yet to see a T2 Vert with a water tight roof.
My Vert leaked the most from the top of the A post, it always used to drip on me from the top of the small window in the door(not sure what there called :))
It also used to leak at the back edge of the Door window, i found this soaked the carpet behind the seats, but this only leaked when the car was sat for a while.
I found the best solution was to buy a cover from Halfords and put it on when the car was not being used, its a bit of a pain to do but does help.
Also wet vac the carpet and get as much of the water out as poss

Yep - did that - I was amazed at how much and how filthy the water was ! :rolleyes:
I get a little bit coming in when the rain is really hard on the drivers side, but the passenger side leak has just become very bad suddenly. I can\'t trace it to anything in partcular. I\'m just concerned, as that\'s where the ECU lives :(
The cover idea sounds like a good one. Cheers. :cheers
When you replaced your seals did you use a mastic type sealer inside the seal itself?
When i replaced mine i asked for all the seals and clips etc and when i picked this kit up from the dealer they gave me a tube of sealer and when i inquired what it was for they said on some verts the water finds its way under the seal its self and will run down inside it.
Ooh errr - I didn\'t get any mastic - just the tacky glue that came on seals themselves - which looks a little like the black mastic stuff.
Looks like you might be on to something there. :)
I will have to see if I can peel it back just a little, and dab a bit of goo in there.
Nice one Mr. G
OK,
Today\'s thunderstorm has let me see where the water is coming from !
It\'s coming out of the little cup shaped bit at the end of the A beam. Seems that the rubber strip here is hollow, and the water can\'t get out quick enough - in fact, I can\'t actually see where it\'s supposed to come out from. :3Confused
Has anyone got a picture or description of what the bottom end is supposed to look like - where the plastic kick boards go across the bottom of the door frame ? (I have a theory that I\'ve pinch this off maybe, so the hollow rubber seal fills up and then pi$$es out the top) :confused:
Need to get this sorted, as I don\'t want a passenger side swimming pool - plus my ECU is not waterproof ! ;)
