Disco 2 back door leakin top left. Any ideas? Aye, and the rear sunroof as well, but ah no how to fix that, ah hope. Should there hav been a shower cap and flannel in the tool kit when ah bought it. Canny understand why ah love the bugger so much!!
 
Same - I had this leaking as well as the sunroofs :-(

But yeah, moved the striker plate and the plastic guide plate above it (mine is a disco2, dunno if a disco 1 has that too?) and it now takes a bit more effort to slam, but makes a satisfying 'clunk' noise when it is shut properly!

get some 'weatherseal' foam stripping from B&Q put that round the door edge to it presses against the rubber strip. Cured my leaks 100% from the rain
 
Cheers guys. Don't know why ah never thought of shiftin the striker plate. Must hav been a bit of a Homer Simpson moment goin on there, "Dooooogh":doh:

Nah, the D1's tend to leak and rust through right at the top of the rear door's top right corner:( (on the body not the door).
