Water in sills!!

Unread post by np »

I have water sloshing around in the drivers side sill!!! :( It looks like its been getting in through the rear passenger door sill,where on the 406 there is a rubber sealing strip which is held in place by clipping into the sill.The end piece has come out & i think the water has been getting in through the hole where it should be clipped in.
How the hell do i get the water out???
Anyone else had anything like this?

if you look along the very bottom edge of the sill you should find several raised sections maybe about half an innch in length each, now look at the other side of the sill at these points as they are water drains, they might be bloked clean them out and in theary they should allow the water out
