Re: water leak and door handle problem
Drainage holes afaik are along the bottom of the doors, also check around the speaker housing and the actual door seal itself.

My brother has started getting water in his passenger door pocket. It just appears to be excess condensation.

Re: water leak and door handle problem
According to peeps, this is a common fault. I've sorted the leak on my 05 Megane II. I fitted a door skin between the door and the plastic door trim and i silicon'd the gaps on the back of the plastic door trim (especially behind the door pockets) as water was coming in at the corner of the door pocket. I used talc power to find the source of the leak.
Job sorted.
