    Can anyone help me out here, my Z32 leaks when raining, both when vehicle is travelling or stationary. The point at which water enter is at the upper door trim meets trim above front window. Is it possible that drain port is blocked and is this a common problem
    Regards

    Are you saying from were the top window touches the targa/pillar ruber seal ?

    If so I had the same prob on my NA just adjust your window to slant in a bit I think there is a tech on it.

    Mine also leaks!!!

    I bought all new weather seals, still drips. I just live with it now :( :rolleyes:

    Some people rub vaso, or baby oil on the seals. This does help, but it's only temperate.

    It dose that but there is a small hose that goes under your pillar trim which guides that to the out side of the car towards the bottom some were

    It is not a hose...

    It is a metal strip, that acts as a drain which runs down the inside of the A pillar.
    Most leaks are at either side of the targa roof, where it latches down.

    Try leaving the windows down a couple of millimetres whenever the weather is fine or the car is under cover. This allows the rubber seal to keep its full shape. I only put the windows hard up when she is outside in the rain.
