[QUOTE="romeo_v12, post: 3614, member: 319"] Hi All,I was cleaning my front passenger carpet and lifted it and noticed a damp patch( quite wet actually). Traced it back to the top portion of the door rubber lining (the part thats on the door and not on the car). It seemed a little flat and soft and there were light water marks showing some dripping that flows to the door panel and then to the floor.The funny thing is that the mat doesnt get wet, the water seems to escape the mat and collect on the actual carpet. So if I didnt lift the mat to dust it, I would NOT have seen it.Car wash jet and heavy KL rains seem to cause the leaks. Nothing during drizzles.Here I am with a 5 year old RM265K(when new) and I have water leakage problems. What a joke. My dads Mercedes has been water tight for 26 years. Am I missing something? Please enlighten me boys!Frustrated Romeo :( [/QUOTE]
