Water leak help required

[Stevo7682]

Hi all looking for a bit of inspiration.
Chasing water leaks on Lynne's zed before i refit the interior but 1 i cant get to the bottom of .

The water seems to appear inside the door seal about half way down.
It then runs down the inner edge when it gets to the bottom it pools on the inside of the inner seal then runs off inside the car any ideas will be taken on board .

There is a small black triangle at the top of the door/roof join, If this triangle gets loose the next water gets in to the rubber strip and the leaks out where you have identified.

Edit: I think I have a complete trim you can have if you need it.

Is that the one on top of the "A" pillar Brian where people fix a rubber patch like a cycle tube repair patch?

Don't think so looking at the photo Tony.

Hi Steve have you checked the sealant aroind the membrane behind the door card is fixed all the way round. Small breaks in the sealant can allow water past which comes out inside the car

Door card is now off butyl weather seal renewed and door seal replaced.
Water enters inside where blue line starts it appears between the door and door seal then runs down

Have a read of Brian's post mate. I wasn't referring to Steve's pictures. I think @Grumps had the same issue.

Tony.

Yes I did Tony. I pushed both the rubber grommets into the pillars and filled over the tops with clear silicone. Never had trouble since. I do get a tad of water in but that comes in where the breaks are in the roof rubbers above the windows.
