Leaking doors = water in car

Does anyone notice that they have water not going out the door drain holes but leaking out between the botton of the inner door panel and metal of the door? My 2001 Coupe gets water on the 3" step sill (plastic part) under the doors when it rains. I have an appt. at Honda next week. This could be the cause of the terible fogging that occurs when it rains out!

I do too. But for some reason only on my passenger door. If it is quiet enough inside the car, I can hear
water flowing through the inside the door and onto the door sill while I'm driving. Do you ever notice
this? Wonder what Honda will say...

It's my passenger door that is the worst. I can hear it as well. I was afraid that maybe it was caused by the Krown guy shoving his 'rust rod' in there and knocking off a plastic sheet or something but it looks like there is at least 1 other with the problem. I'll keep you posted... The appt. is this Friday afternoon.

I was having the same problem as well as a weird clicking noise in the door. They had my car for a month trying to find the noise but fixed the doors. They had to put a new weather strip thing on the doors, both of them. They thought the clicking was in dash but wasn't and I was really getting pissed cause they had car for soo long but they are giving me the carbon fiber dash kit to make up for it. They did provide me w/ a loaner while they had it at least.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG]

revived from the dead.

i have that same darn problem, made an appointment at the dealer to, so SiCoupe, what happened? did they fix the problems?
i really dont care about the water that much, as long as it doesnt get to my speakers ( which it is ), i just hope they dont blame me for it, cause i put those after market speakers in it and had to take the door panels off.

i hate how the windshield is in a state of perpetual semi-fogginess. unless i take a towel and wipe it, the window always looks kind of foggy, very annoying.

i don't have the leaking, but did you notice that air leaks in from around the window buttons? it's rather odd.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

Well I got my car fixed, the piece of plastic inside the door was picnched/pulled/scrintched etc. Dealer fixed it in 35min.
Craig.,

Now I have to take it in to get the other side fixed...

SiCoupe- is this the lower rubber seal that on the bottom of the door? I ask this since my '02 drivers side door sill is wet when it rains. Thanks.
