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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I drove my car to work yesterday and it rained all day. I decided to put up the spoiler just for the hell of it and noticed that the carpet on my door below the speaker in soaking wet. The bottom-of-door seal seems fully seated and seems OK but it's hard to tell for certain. I can't imaging where else the water would have come from.

rain guard is missing or not correctly in position behind the door panel

Can you give me more details please? I google'd that up and didn't get any information?

It's just a piece of plastic, on some cars it is tar paper. Sometimes called a vapor barrier
