Default Water marks.

I noticed yesterday that i have two water marks on the drivers seat. Water is coming in some where. Has anyone else found this and if so was it easy to fix and was it fixable?

Might be from the upper horizontal door seal...

I've seen same problem on CZ forums...

Hi All,

Not posted on the forum before. We took delivery of a new olive green roomster 2 at the end of march. Really pleased with the car, exceeded our expectations in fact. We have the 1.9tdi with added roof rails and cruise control as options.

Re water marks: I have found that when I open the drivers door in heavy rain water drips in onto the seat from the roof. this is not the door seals not working it is just the way the water drains off the roof when the door is open. Its a design fault I think. I can't say I've found it much of a problem. It is worse if the car is parked up a curb so the car is on leaning slightly. could be remedied I parked facing the other way although I know that isn't really a satisfactory remedy.

Isn't it strange that even after all these years of motoring, they can't even get the basic things right!

Not really no. It's a production issue which can and will happen to anything at any time. Not defending it but we do live in a world where 4% of all new good develop faults in the first 28 days.
