Can't see images
For some reason I can't see the images in this guide, does anyone else have this problem?
Andy if you still have the word version any chance you or someone else could re-upload it?
Otherwise great job, I've been waiting for the weather to dry out a bit more before I try this (last time I looked at this thread a few months ago, the images displayed ok). Now we've got a bit better weather I just need to buy some sealer and replacement clips...

H guys,
I was just wondering if anyone around the Manchester area would be able to do this job to my Toledo Mk2?
I get, when it rains pretty heavily, water in both the front and rear of the car.
Would happily drive the car to a place of convenience and pay for parts and labour.
Thanks,
Adam

A few days late but...
If have not already got it fixed have confidence that the job is fairly easy with only a couple of tools and care needed. The worst thing is getting a good point of access to properly clean out the lower section of old degraded foam seal, for me that means lying on the ground
I have new sealing bead if you need it.

I haven't got the problem fixed yet, and I would be interested in arranging something.
How do we go about messaging one another privately?
Cheers Lee,
Ahh just re-read what I typed, lol, I meant its done it for the second time in about two weeks, so not tried to fix it yet.
Had the car over a year and always been quite happy as never leaked, thought maybe as its a 55 plate 2006 model may have escaped the issue!
I shall have a proper look tonight
What I was getting at is, if its the pollen filter, would it damp on carpet under dash?
Then if the door would only be damp along the sill etc...?
Many thanks
CB
Hey I'm not sure how to reply to your comment on my post I've just joined
If you can private message me and we can discuss
Hi Guys,
I bought my Cupra R 3 weeks ago and knew about the leaky door problems but at rhe time the footwells were dry. I have since realised with all the heavy rain the passenger front and rear footwells are soaked. After using silicon around the membrane of the door and readjusting the pollen filter the front footwell has not leaked since. However he rear passenger footwell is still soaked everytime it rains. I have checked the inner door card and still no signs of any water but it still sits on the rubber at the bottom of the door and on the carpet.
I really would appreciate any suggestions anyone has please?
Thanks

Did you actually dry out the footwells after doing the door liner and pollen filter? It holds a surprising amount under the carpet.
Did you use sealant when putting the pollen filter housing back in place and make sure the cover and its skirts were positioned correctly (old ones can be a bit misshapen over the years).
Did you clear out the drain hole to the side of it?
Did you also check the drain holes in the door were clear?
To test, secure a strip of paper along the door just under the inner panel then run plenty of water down the outside window. See if the paper stays dry. I would expect the lower rubber to be wet in normal use anyway.
