C124 Front Window Seal
Hi guys,
I have a 94 coupe and when I take it for a wash water seeps in from the front window (pillarless design).
It does so on the drivers side, and at highway speeds there is wind noise from the drivers side window.
I assume the rubber sealing can be replaced?
Is this the main culprit?
Can someone tell me what it is called, maybe a part number etc?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Yeah, its likely a combination of the weather seals being worn/shrunk and possibly needing to re-seat the door stop a bit.
I've the same issue on my coupe.
I don't have the part number offhand, but I know the seals run a bit on the pricey side. From what I understand, they're very easy to remove and replace though.

Did yours look deteriorated? As mine actually look in really good condition.
Do you know what "pricey" is?
The door lines line up perfectly to the car.
It's quite low mileage and bought new by my dad, never been in an accident etc

Adjust the window inwards or upwards a fraction. If you go up don't go too far or the glass will chip at the top of the A pillar. Suggest you start with inwards and for that the lower plastic outer cladding will need to come off to reach the adjuster bolts......

There is only a specific section that the window leaks from, and it's not from rain but from a high pressure hose.
The section it leaks from may only be about 5cm or so.
The window closes tight on the rear window as well.
Is adjusting it in this case a good idea?

It's leaking just behind the upper "bend" in the window.
ie, roughly in the top middle part of the window, and about 3 inches of so get wet and it drips.
I'll take pictures today and post them
