Frozen water in the back door seal

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

today is a freezy day and when I tried to open my back door I was suprised because it stuck a bit. As I inspected for some reason there was ice between the lowest point of the door seal and the door. The whole week was cold with some rain and the car was outside. What should I check, the upper part of the seal? The window?

I quickly inspected but was not able to find any place where water can go through. Any advice?

 

thanks in advance

UPDATE: I have checked and the window is unable to lift. My idea is that water running down to the glass reaches the inside of the door and for some reason it does not exit in the holes at the bottom of the door(I guess designed for this) but leak into the exterior. Should I check any seal inside the door? It there any butyl tape to avoid this situation? Thanks

Please do not take offence to me saying this but this issue has been covered numerous times bud (in this MK2 section too).

 

I would link it if I knew where it was but if you search this section you should find it along with the solution I had that has worked for me and another member that used it with good results too.

 

Hope you can find it. I will keep my eye open for it.
