:lol:  yup leaking sunroofs i found out about them too late and the hard way got a cold shower on way to work at 5:30 one morning grrr lol

local stealer quoted me £400 each to do the sunroofs..... :shock:  so now i drive with a hat in the rain...

The glass seal isn't a difficult job to do, but it's a headlining out job to do the frame seal i think

Done this, took about half a day to get it out, siliconed all around the frame of the sunroofs and put back together. Undid the torque screws, gave a good squirt under and then re-tightened. Headlining back in then.

I think the rear sunroof is still leaking as on top of the tailgate where the headlining sits it is dripping :?:

Sound to you like a suspect rubber seal :?:

Snooky:
I don't care too much about a leaking roof, I have a defender and am used to it  :lol:

So apart from leaking sunroofs, can the rest if treated well with waxoil be prevented, I know that any that I am likely to buy will probably only ever seen dirt at a car boot sale, so was hoping to clean and waxoil soon after purchase  :wink:

Either that or the alpine windows.
Does the water run forward & soak the front edge of the headlining ?
