leaking like a sieve!
 
been raining a lot here in Nor Cal and finding my car is leaking like a sieve. I have the door panels off and so much water as come in it's destroyed my carpet. It seems to be dripping in off the window regulator track but I can't find the entry point. Any one there got any tips for plugging this? I also notice there is a big gap between rear hatch edge and twilight/bumper. Is this normal? The gap is huge there but it looks factory. I can't figure out if it's missing some kind of rubberier if that's just the way it is. input appreciated!

Is the insulator behind your door panel intact?

Make sure all of your water drain holes are not clogged.

ok. Thanks.My drain holes are unplugged. regarding the plastic insulator/vapor shield..is that the only barrier keeping the water from coming into the cabin? I would take that to mean water is expected to come into the door regardless of how good the rubber door seals are. That surprises me a little bit. No I don't have the vapor shield on. Guess I'll have to make new ones. Thanks
