I do the same thing in a pinch and it cleans the car real well, but it should not be a regular thing

I have had condensation build up at times, but not an actual leak

No need to wash the primer...just paint it :)

Seriously tho, don't use an automatic car wash.

My front left triangle window has always leaked when washing the car...

even at home. It's only a few drops and the dealer has adjusted the door but it still leaks.

If my cold start stall is really fixed I'll put this on the list at my next scheduled service.
