Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Hi, on my new used 981 I've noticed that dry windows turn into wet windows when fully down and the up.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, on my new used 981 I've noticed that dry windows turn into wet windows when fully down and the up. There was a rain several hours ago same day. Is this normal or are seals likely broken? I don't remember seeing similar behaviour on my previous 981/987's Thanks.

POST 2Original post

How much water would you say? 987's always had an issue where there was some water/grease smudging from a soft layer touching the glass when it was down. I'd imagine it is the same thing. It'd hazard a guess that this is what you are seeing.

POST 3Original post

Could be door card membranes - are the door cards wet? Or drains - are the carpets under the seats wet? Plenty of advice regarding both on boxa.net

POST 4Original post

I don’t get this on my 981S so suggest it isn’t normal and you are getting water ingress through a poor seal and/or blocked drain hole.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
