Subject: Could be that the drain holes in the bottom of the door are cloged Author: sixspeedbmw : member since January, 2008 : 83 posts Posted on: 2008-07-27 22:30:27

There are two holes at the botom of the door that allow water that seeps past the window seal to drain from the bottom of the door. If these holes are cloged, then the door will fill with water and may overflow into the cabin. The holes are located at the very front, and back of the door, near the outer weather strip.

Good luck,
