Water in door

After recent heavy rains, water has accumulated in the driver's rear door on my 1999 E320 wagon. The water sloshes back and forth when accelerating and braking. Are there drain plugs or does the inside panel need to be removed?

There has to be drains, since all car doors leak some water in at the window. I don't know where they are, other than to say, "At the bottom."

You can clean the drains out with some wire or weed-whip line or something similar and that may be enough. If it were my car, I would be tempted to take the door panel off and clean it up inside, but I probably would not do it.

Drain holes

at bottom of door.
Get the panel off and get it dried and wd40 and the holes cleaned out before you return to talk about the rust in your rear door.
