So
Completely stripped out van to fit rear seat belts lay new ply etc. Under and through the kitchen units in right hand front corner under the sliding window and behind the driver seat was about a dozen holes. I thought at first that it was for fridge ventilation. Realise now after working in the van in the rain last night that it was obviously to drain all the water that gets in through the sliding window somewhere!! Anyway by this point it’s to late as I’ve already welded it up and plywood over. Christ.
Could drill more holes put would like to try to stop it at source. Any advice or tips please peeps?

I had a small leak from the sliding window in my AutoSleeper where the rubber had perished, had the occasional drip onto the worktop.
Fixed it with Sikaflex PU adhesive on the outside.

The rubber on the out side seems fine! I’ll need to investigate it a wee bit more I reckon.

If all the units are out then I think you need to create your own rain shower to identify where the water is getting in. Time to get the watering can out
