    Water in your ear drum is a possibility too haha, also a air pocket in your coolant system or coolant passing to or from the overflow

    if you don't want internal rust in the sill it'd be prudent to ask a panel beater what you can do to try and prevent it

    I use the Super Cheap Auto spray can stuff. But, it can block drainage as well.

    Yea its something you just need to keep an eye on even mud blocks them. Ive got a tube that goes on my underseal gun that you poke down into sills and pillars etc wit a nozzel that sprays sideways as you slowly draw the tube out of sill etc

    Yeah the Supercheap Auto Fish Oil Spray does leave a bit of a dead shark odour for a while but it's pretty well deoderised, not like the old fisholene of years ago which did hum for ages.

    I think we've already had the old "you can rub it and scrub it and give it hell" in another thread not too long ago.......

    Check the bottom sills beneath your doors, common place for it to pool also, pop the bung, drain and replace.

    From a dirty old port car washer, vents are your enemy, they gather and hold leaves seeds and mud, perfect for rust and plant growth. Then chassis rail ,and anywhere that has wheel arch covers, plastic surrounds any where that creates a pocket , for crap to settle.

    Bash plates are another great place to collect grass seeds straw.
