Unhappy Water Damage, Please Help

Hello!

1992 sc400
230 000km

I have two problems with my door trim:

EDIT:

1) When it rains or when I wash my car, when I open my door I can see water dripping down from under the door trim.
Is this normal? The water is not pouring out, but it does drip so it does mean that there is water under the door trim. Is this a problem with my moulding right beside my window on the outside?

2) My door SQUEAKS when I am driving. It sounds like the door trim is loose. When I looked at the screws connecting the trim to the door today, I found that the heads of the screws broke the trim. So basically 3of7 screws holding the trim in place are loose. So they squeak when I drive. I would like a fix but something not permanent.

I will post pictures when I get my digital back!

Thank you all for your help!
Michael

the drippy sounds like weather stripping. As far as the squeaks go... no idea..

oh yea... more on your door trim. If you could post some pics of the top of the window & the dripping that would help too.

If the door isn't soaked that's a good sign... check you weather stripping to make sure it's all ok.
