Doors Holding Water

Anyone have an issue, during heavy rain, the SHO doors turn into Camels ? lol

I backed up yesterday and heard a sloshing sound from the Driver rear and passenger front. We have been getting slammed in the North East with heavy rain of late.

Anyway. I got out and lifted up the lower door gasket. Ran my finger over the drain slit as I saw some wet crap over the slit. There was a small amount of crap blocking the hole because it was held in check by the door gasket. My SHO took a leak for 30 seconds on both doors.

Maybe Ford should have a PM in the Owners manual. LOL

Fairly common, unfortunately.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Yea happened to me as well. Thought I had water in my ears or something. Now every other wash I clean the rubber on the bottom of the doors and run water through the bottom of the door to force out anything stopping flow. Since I've been doing that I have never heard it again.

Never knew until yesterday. No I will do PMs every car wash as stated.

There must be a mod to keep the water flowing though.

The rubber gets pressed up against the drain slot and then crap gets stuck against it and acts like a dam.
