I have tried adjusting the side windows every which way. There is absolutely no sag in the doors.

Turns out this morning we had a down pour when I need to bring my car in for an inspection.

I replaced the side window rubber from (Mikey) but I'm thinking that the top rear gasket needs to be replaced. I just looked at another 914 and it seems to sit much lower.

Also the point above the vent wing has a gap, does this mean the top window rubber needs to be replaced or does the front rubber on the window frame need replacement

What do you think?

Pictures have been attached for this morning.

The lower main targa seal can leak. Most look great until you try to remove them. Try to take it out adn put it back in. If it's hard and has cracks it's actually seeping through the rubber. Not the 1st place most look but it actually channels the water away that makes it past the upper. It's usually manifested as a consistant but slow drip.

That and adjustemes may help. My targa to window seals have a lip that the glass should close under.


You can see where they go just under the main seal here
