Mend Around Car Door

Leaking seal around my car door?

The seal on my driver side door is leaking around the top of the door. During the rain or even when I wipe off the morning dew, it will drip slowly into the car. Is there a way to shim it, or do I need to replace the whole seal around the door?

Apart from getting a new seal you can try this; Wind down the window, put your knee on the inside centre of the door, and slowly but firmly pull the top of the door frame toward you. Dont yank it cause door frames are not that strong and you might bend it in to far. This will close the gap and stop you getting a leak.
