Leaky slider window fix

Yes, done it, as the man says ‘do it in black’.
Unfortunately it’s not the only issue with the leaking sliding windows, it will prevent corrosion between the steel frame and window if done early enough.
There‘s already plenty of content on this issue, have a Search
There are many who have given up on keeping the water out and are concentrating on drainage. IMO the source of the issue needs to be fixed so a better or augmented OEM seal is the answer.
Ultimately there’s a design engineer, possibly in Germany who should be swinging by his testicles for his poor standard of work.
 
Had a look at my revised T6.1 windows earlier. They have changed the design slightly and two different holes in the channel, but looking underneath it still leaks and because mine aren't from factory with the metal pinched together, it leaks into the door. Not ideal, especially if it's the same on the non sliding side.
Shocking, especially as I paid £780 each from VW :mad:
What is also annoying is when you open them if drags all the excess water out and into the van
