Make sure all the drain holes under the doors are clear of rubbish,my Omega is parked usually on a slope nose up,and after rain or wash down when o/s/f door is opened water allways drained out,I poke the drain holes out about every 6 mths to make sure they stay clear.
If you have water or damp in the storage pockets the plastic membrane between door card and door panel is missing or damaged,which if you have side airbags will severely effect there operation in a side on whack.

Yes, finally, SOMEONE has noticed this problem. We have 3  bmw e39 5 series in the our road. All have had issuse with the membrane behind the door card comeing loose from the metal door frame and letting water into the car through the door card. The omega has similar membrane as can be seen via Tunnies door card removal guide. Also check the drain holes are not blocked on the under side of the door as said.

Any damp in the car will cause steaming, and no ac will not helps as it has a dehumidifier built in.

 I wonder how Tunnies door leak is doing
