Bad weather stripping around doors?

Hey,
I'm just curious if anyone else has this problem, when I go through a car wash, or if i go to a manual wash, any type of pressure in the water, and it will come in the top right corner of my passenger door. And we're talking a substantial amount. Its depressing when I just want to go through the wash, and my passenger gets soaked!! I know some people are going to say, why are you going through an automatic car wash, or using high pressure on it at all.. well, lets be realistic, its going to happen. So, any ideas on how to fix it? It looks fine upon visual inspection, but still...anything?

Weather stripping wears out, if it's worn/cracked you'll need to replace it. Give Rick at Riverside Infiniti a call and explain your situation, 800-919-8130 make sure you're sitting down when he tells you the cost ($$) of weather stripping....

You could always get those plastic wind deflectors if they make them for the g ;-)

they dont make them for the G because we dont have a railing around the top of the window to attatch it. if you dont see cracks in the rubber than its probably fine. if you are mechanically inclined you can take the door panel off and there are adjusters that move the window tracks inside the door. this will cause the window to put more or less pressure against the weather stripping causeing a better or worse seal depending which way you adjust it.i think this happens because of the lack of support on the top of the window it causes the tracks and sliders to wear out. it will be towards the bottom of the door should be big gold washers with the adjusters.
