The bottom of the offside door card is wet when it rains. Where are the drain holes for the bulkhead and sunroof, I'll tackle these first I think. Only thing is I cannot really see a path for water from either of these places to the door? Any instructions on door card removal without involving my favourite tool? Thanks Paul |

knowing the capacity of your bladder, I suggest it is incontinence. Try dressing to the left and see if the center console gets wet

the size of his bladder although of impotance is not the defining feature here, the appendage that proceeds the bladder would have to reach far enough to wet the door card. I humbly suggest that such appendage would only make for a "wet lap" in a very localised area and the door card would be way tooooooo far without a heath robimson style tubing affair going on! it may be a sleepwalking thing though. I have heard that the older boxsters suffer from this wet door card thing as the door drainms do block/are not opened at the factory properly. |

you may find that the membrane between the door card and door has a hole in it or has been removed before and not fitted properly. This keeps the water that gets into the door away from the onside of the car |
