airtight!

[damo m]

On these cold mornings I have noticed that I have had to crank the heating up a little once I get onto a motorway as the cabin has become cold.

There is a large amount of air coming in somewhere around the 'shelf' to the right of the steering wheel. I presume it is from the door but I don't want to spend loads of time looking for it if it is 'one of those things'.

Does anyone else have this kind of problem?

I get air coming through there and the bottom of the door too. Anyone got any ideas how to solve this?

You need to find out where the gap is and then fill it in, one way to find it is to put some vaseline along where the rubber seal meets the door (or body, cannot remember which side has the rubber seal) then shut the door and see which bit of the rubber has no vaseline transferred on to it, this is where the leak is.
As for fixing it, well maybe you need to build up the rubber seal, or if it is flattened, try putting something inside the rubber seal to open up the tube - if you see what I mean

It should make more sense with the car in front of you
