Hi All,
New owner of a 2003 Cupra 1.8 turbo.
The power is awesome- much more than anything I've owned before.
Was great fun in the summer, but now its winter, I've got that dreaded water leak issue and no time to fix it.
I found the forum because I was searching for solutions.
Solutions were to take apart the door and remove door card, use some silicon sealant and put back together. Oh and pollen filter, great directions from Andy
If anyone in the Midlands knows a garage that'll give a go at fixing or has some spare time to make some cash, let me know
Thanks,
Luke

If it is wet just in the passengers footwell then the leak could be due to a poorly fitted pollen filter or cover.
However the majority of leaks are through a foam seal around the ancillaries carrier – this is the removable internal metal panel on the door that the speaker and window regulator are attached to.
