Trapped water (video)

Do they all do this? No water ever gets in to the car, it just sits on the sill until the door is opened.

I was wondering if it's because my drive slopes a bit. The car is always parked nose up. I should probably try parking it the other way around and see if the same happens. Maybe it's just got really good door seals :teeth:

Parked nose up, mine does that - it's normal for my car. Not saying it's good, but that seems to be what happens. If you park nose down, or flat then it goes away. I have no problems with water getting in either :thumbs:

Thanks for that. I don't want to go looking for faults that aren't there. Don't won't to park the other way around either, reversing off in to the street is that bit more awkward :dry:

 

I should probably investigate how the water gets there in the first place and see if that seems right.

Mine does that now and again after very heavy rain but its never bothered me as it doesn't get right in.

 

Mine is also nose up so could be that.

If you want to track where the water comes from, you can try with some concentrated corn flour mixture with water. That should leave a track behind after few minutes when it settles down and pretty low cost yet easy to clean after 😎

My car does that depending where I park on the driveway.

 

I openned the door yesterday morning sat for a few seconds then got some drips down my arm.

 

Fine when the door is shut though.

 

Just water running down when you move the car I'd say
