Subject:water under window seal
From:Gerald Masar

Hi,
I've just discovered water trapped under the lower part of the rubber seal
around the window at the back on the left side of my '90 Westy. It has been
there for some time because we haven't had rain in weeks and I haven't
washed it recently. The rubber seal is intact and tight all around the
window but it's obviously getting in somehow. There is no visible rust even
when I lift the edge of the seal, but there is some in there somewhere
because the first clues were dried rust-colored spots below the seal.

Any information as to where it might be getting in and how to fix this
problem will be greatly appreciated.
