Air Leakage 05 Corolla S - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I hear a slight air leak from the passenger rear window, the small window that doesn't roll down. How do I get rid of it? I thought to put some silicone on it. What do you think? I see where it's coming from b/c when I went thru the carwash some of the soap was in that area, which is why I'm thinking silicone.

What do I know?

Check maybe the rubber window seal is torn or missing, it may be that or the rubber door seal has broke around the area where the leak is.

Thank you Woot. If it is broken or torn, where do I take it to get it repaired or is there some kit that I can get from Auto Zone to repair it?

Thanks for your reply.

dont go with universal kits, just get OEM original parts for best quality, you can get them from dealerships or from some mechanics, you can instal it your self or go to a regular private mechanic for a simple job like this, generaly its a good idea to stay away from big chain auto shops since they charge to much, a regular private mechanic will charge you much less.

my friend has the same problem; can the window rubber seal be pulled out or are tools needed?
