Leak from passenger mirror controller...

It's raining cats and dogs here (has been all weekend!) noticed that I have quite a nasty leak coming from around the area of the remote contol handle for the door mirror....

Also noticed now I think about it, there is a small plastic grommet missing... surely not at simple as that is it?
:dunno:

Not sure about the plastic grommet but it would make sense.

If that doesn't work, you could try that fix where you put plastic tubing under the window seals.

Sounds like it could be a few things:

Squashed rubber - as Kara says pop some aquarium tubing down inside the drain channel in the rubber - that bumps it up a bit.

Badly adjusted window cheater - the rubber part where the mirror attaches can be adjusted inwards a bit by popping the door card off and fiddling with the nuts that hold it to the door panel.

Dodgy window stop - does your window go up too high if raised when the door is open? If so then the window stop is knackered and this is easily replaced for a tenner - again door panel off I'm afraid!

had the passenger side door panel off at the weekend to fix the window stop... the stop was found to be intact, but there was nothing on the door for the stop to stop against... poor english I know... but I know that you get the jist.. did notice after fixing the drivers door that the window glass does not rattle... passenger door does though... could be the answer... cheers guys..:yesnod:

It's not a high tech design - basically as far as I can tell the stop just bangs into the inside top of the door panel! LOL

Rattly windows can be the adjustment or sometimes the actual runners get loose.. try gallons (not literally!) of lithium or spray grease in the runners too - if your cheaters are not wonky then I'd go with the tube in the rubber solution next.....
