Leak or condensation?

<< < (3/3)

Bush Tucker Man:
Stefan, the 110Tdi Hard-Top I used to own leaked as well when it rained.
All the water would run around the internal channels/folds in the roof-assembly & eject itself just above your knee.

After several visits to the dealer (Copley Motors, Halifax) & 2 complete door-seals & a windscreen-rubber no difference was apparant.

Eventually during a (very,very) rare wash (we were going to a Wedding) I noticed that where the work-lamp had been bolted to the vertical section of the roof-panel above the rear off-side window that all the gutter-sealant had split & dried.

The lamp bracket had pulled down upon fixing & moved the gutter-rail cracking the sealant.

50p of Silicone ensured not a dribble until the day I sold it over 3years later :D
