DOORS FILL UP WITH WATER

[simon yorkshire]

Tuscan S 2002 - Anyone else had this problem? The rubber door seal doesn't reach the window glass when the door windows are up. Left the the car our in a big thunderstorm in September and they still have water sloshing around inside them. How do I get it out?

There should be drain holes at the bottom of the door sills, all the doors are exactly the same for all S6 models (except door cards), I wonder if your's is blocked up?

Thanks Chris - you are right - on the drivers side there is a lovely hole about 10 mm across - that does the trick.

Unfortunately, on the passenger side there is no such hole. The door has been replaced at the factory earlier this year after being damaged, and they must have only had in stock that day doors with no drainage holes. Armed with a cordless drill I did the job myself and within 5 minutes the 2 gallons or water found its way to the ground! Note to TVR - add to quality inspection list 'check drainage hole in car door', or maybe its there on the list but the list is written in Russian! Or hey, maybe there isn't a quality inspection list!!
