i'm getting water pooling at the drivers door sill too. so interested to hear what folks have to say. Interestingly this only started after they rectified the problem of water building up at the top of the door seal.

pretty sure my last leon had holes in the seals like this (from new)....not checked the current one!!!

I had the same problem, pulled the seal off the bottom of the door and a load of water instantly dumped from inside the door panel, The seal did have 2 or 3 drain holes in it but they were clogged with loads of mud, I cleaned both front door seals up and they don't leak anymore
