When the door card is off, get an assistant to spray a gentle hose of water. Get an old kitchen knife to help with the door card plastic clips. They tend to break anyway so you will probably need some new ones of those.
The membrane plastic sheet, I use the blue damp proof course stuff
Think "roof" when sealing up the sheet, so water runs off.
The Nissan bit of junk the lad had that had a swimming pool in the passenger foot well deep end, the membrane sheet was leaking just below a drain hole designed to drain water to the inside of the car door, and then away. We thunk roof and after that it was dry, then the inj pump committed suicide.
Its shortly to be sent to Nissan heaven.
Back to the pug, the water will appear between the very thin gap between the door pocket plastic and door steel.
If you carefully remove the door seal and lift the carpet, and place a brick or similar to keep the carpet up, that will help with drying out the sponge. Crunched up new paper also works well. Airflow is the answer.
CharliO, is there a tear in the door seal upper area ?? allowing water into that "tube".
If the carpet is wet, the sponge backing will be soaking.
