We've discovered we've got a leaky window in our ldv convoy and also the rain is coming in the top of the sliding door. The window is a non opening one. Any advice would be welcome!

Thanks

You may find CAPTAIN TOLLEY'S CREEPING CRACK CURE does the trick.
"Penetrating co-polymer sealant finds and seals fine cracks which ordinary sealants simply can't reach. Captain Tolley's Crack Cure will find and seal hairline cracks in leaking windows, portlights, decks, coachroofs, deck houses, planks, centre-board casings and all deck fittings. Leaves a clear, flexible seal. Saves time and effort - no dismantling required."
 
Door seal may need replacing or door may need adjustment , for the window wait for a good dry day ,clean all the way round the window rubber checking for cracks ,perished rubber or rot in the van body , window may need to come out for metal repair , Quick job , dry and clean the rubber inside and out , put masking tape all way round the window and reseal with a good sealant deep into the seal , allow to dry for 30-40 minutes and slowly pull away the tape , then leave over night , job done , be careful not to get any sealant in places you don't want it , its hard to clean off .
 
hi have you cured the leaking window yet?.
the ldv convoy has a problem with water running down the wiper spindles, when the drain holes in the same recess that the spindles sit in become blocked.

when you say leaky window do you mean windscreen. Or side window .How old is the van If it about 10 years it will probably. Be corrosion behind the glass. On ldv the side doors and are a poor fit and very difficult to make water tight also leads to corrosion of the door step
