Hi all
I believe I have encountered a new form of 944 water problem! If I park my car with the nose elevated (like on my sloping drive), water seems to gather on the passenger doors "sill", trapped by the door seal. This pours out onto my passengers' feet when the door is opened, but also appears to seep into the rear footwell behind the passenger seat if the rain is heavy enough to fill the door sill until the water reaches the top seal. (Red arrow in photo might make this clearer!)
Is there a way around this? I don't want to pierce the door seal in case it lets water in while driving for instance. I also can't open the door on a regular basis to stop the water building up! I suppose I could trap a small piece of tube between the door seal and the door "sill" so that the water would drain through the tube under the seal before it gets high enough to seep into the footwell. Any other thoughts?
Thank you.
