Re: Sunroof STILL leaks

Sounds like it's not fitting right. You sure the latches are good?

Re: Sunroof STILL leaks

I don't know. It looks like you have the one that rolls all the way back right? I really don't know I just have the crappy flip up one :/

Seems like maybe something is stuck in the track when it's closing, making a small enough leak? I'm throwing out ideas here so bare with me. Is it leaking all around the roof or just at a spot or 2?

Re: Sunroof STILL leaks

its just a very little leak that must accumulate over time (it doesn't make a puddle in my car or anything). I don't even notice it until i take my first turn and water dumps on me

Re: Sunroof STILL leaks

Haha... Did that a couple times when I open it up and don't realize there's water on the roof. I would say look for the accumulation and check around that area. That's all I got. Sorry dude.

Re: Sunroof STILL leaks

Next time it rains, pull the car inside and remove the sunroof, then see exactly where the water puddles up and try find where it's coming from.
