Re: [MBZ] 124 wagon leaks

When the seal on a 123 300 TD rear hatch leaks the rear cargo bay carpet is
wet near where the hatch closes. Also, both my side windows leaked at
different times, and Banner Glass resealed them for about $20/side (this was
a decade ago).

Re: [MBZ] 124 wagon leaks

Is the leakage between the glass and the side window frame, or between the 
frame and the body?  Or do both need to be resealed?


I figured I should start by sitting in the back at a carwash.  Short of 
locating the leaks, I figured the hatch seal was a good place to start.

The source of the water is often from around the rear side windows (THE
STATIONARY ONES) and resealing them is a chore. I haven't heard of the
rear hatch seals causing a problem unless the hatch isn't aligned, but
if the seal is damaged, that could certainly do it.
