Well like the others did, I would first check the scuttle, if that is filled with water then that is most likely to be the problem, if it's not that then I think you have something more serious on your hands, if your not an expert probably best to get it looked at.. :)

If you need any more help, just ask :)

Well once you checked it and replaced the door car, was there still water coming in? :) If so you probably will need a new door seal!
