Thanks

My 300`s done that for the last 4 years  :evil: i did try landrover once to fix it  :shock: £400 for each sunroof fitted and that was way back then too, seems most people have just silicon`d em shut!

 Infact after the rain we had here in northampton yesterday im considering fitting a soap dispenser cos if im gona have a shower on the way to work may aswell have a good wash

btw i know its a common problem on the 300`s dont know about them posh new td5`s lol

diggerdog36:
I have just spent the weekend fixing mine (Td5).  Then we had the biggest thunderstorm Ive seen and it didnt leak!!!  So fingers crossed its fixed it.  There is a good link somewhere in this forum, I used that one, I will try and find it and post a link up.  Its just a case of siliconing up the little cups that catch the water in heavy rain, thats when they overflow.

Range Rover Blues:
All sunroofs leak a bit, so shouldn't they have drain tubes attached to them :-k

Anyhoo I've a 300 TDi in peices and AFAIK the sunroofs don't leak.

Hi All

As you will have read, it is a common problem, as leaking around the alpine lights.

You can get black mastic from screwfix for the alpine lights.

Have a look here for a guide to fixing sunroof leaks.  A bit involved so haven't tried this yet, so can't comment.
