Have had a problem with the drivers side window leaking and a wet carpet by the slide and have been working on it for a couple of weeks. Had it in two y/ago and they pulled it and sent it out to be resealed to the tune of $600 and then found there was a leak in the roof and replaced that with a new PVC roof courtesy of my insurance company to the tune of $7,300. On checking the window,I found that they had broken off a screwhead in the upper front corner and just put caulk in the hole and the top front of the window had separated from the body. I have resealed that and run a bead of clear silicone all around the window glass after finding that when I squeezed the bottom seal, water came out. It seems to have done the trick. The next thing was that two different techs that looked at it said that I needed to make sure the bottom felt was lined up with the drip holes and it wasn't. So I marked it, pulled it out and cut the drip holes to match the slots in the bottom of the window and that's doing even better. Next is to order drip hole covers to cut down on any water coming in and the wind noise.
After that is a trip into the shop where they did the work and have a discussion with the boss. It was his tech that told me that the window was fine and the weep holes were all lined up correctly.
The other thing I did today was to check the tire condition and air pressure all around and found that in about 4 months and 2,000 miles, they're all still right on the nose.
