Default Leaks all of a sudden....

As per the title.....so opening drivers door I now get rain-water running/dripping from the rubber moulding attached to the windscreen frame, I mean the rubber that runs diagonally then stops level with the inner door area, there's nothing blocking it. Your thoughts please ;-)

Shin - Etsu time! The rubber on your car probably needs lubricating.

I think the cause might be that it's been raining a lot recently? - sorry, mines the pack-a-mac hanging by the door, I'll get it and be on my way

The (long) leaky roof thread might give you some ideas but I think the general cause of water on the shoulder is often wicking through from the corner fold of the roof, but your issue doesn't sound like that, so as above; a clean and lube the bit of rubber in question and you should be good to go, if not have a look for degradation of that corner fold area.
