I think I may be overly critical and would like a second opinion.

Are my door seals bad and should I get them replaced?

I have a black 08 G35 sedan that I bought new in July. Every time I wash it there is water in the doors. If I open the doors water drops get onto the other doors. Also if I roll down the windows up to 20 min later it streaks them. No water gets into the interior but a lot of water is is in the area that is closed (by kick plates) in all 4 doors and trunk.

This is the first "non beater" car that I have ever owned so I really would like other opinions.

thanks

 

Your gonna get some water in the door and trunk wells the car is not air tight.
The streaking if the windows is from the rubber still being wet from the wash.
You are ok, as long is there is no water inside the door( In the panel) which is what you have a issue with not just in were the kick plate is.

 

Great thanks

 

Sure no problem.

 

+1 If you're seeing water inside the passenger compartment, that could be a problem. What you should be seeing though, is water in the doors at the corners (outside the rubber seals), and water on the outside of the windows if you roll them down.
