Bad window seals?
So I'm not sure if this is worth complaining about, but whenever I wash my car, water/condensation always seeps in on the window where the door closes. My old car also did this, so that's why I'm not sure if this is atypical or not. Although, my last car was a 2003 and not brand new. I dont really care that much at this point, but if it's something wrong and could get worse, I'd like it fixed. I have also noticed an increased amount of wind noise on the interstate.
Do any of you have similar experiences? Below is an example, though it has been somewhat worse than this at times. http://i1259.photobucket.com/albums/...s/IMG_1545.jpg |
Mine does not do this..and I wash my car about 4 times a week. This may be the first issue on this forum that my car does not have. Yay.

I do not have an FRS/BRZ, but my car does the same thing.

Mine did this slightly while I washed the FR-S for the first time, but water did not get inside at all

thats not normal, the way it looks its not just a condensation. you probably have a leak there somwhere. i would take it to the dealer. try cleaning the seal where it meets the glass.
|
While I do not have an FR-S/BRZ, I do have a car with frameless windows. It's not too terribly unusual to get a little water inside , but not too much. There is (or should be) and adjustment at the bottom of the (inside) of the door where you can angle the window a little more - but I would not suggest you do that unless you have some experience with frameless windows.
|
Frameless window + high pressure sprayer = what you see (if you get the angle right). Now if you see this just after a rain storm or something, then you might start to worry.
|
This is normal for all vehicles with frameless windows... We have 2 sets of seals to prevent water from escaping into cabin. Look carefully how the 2nd seal flap is designed to drain and seal the window (like a suction cup).
