Hi I have just jumped ship and sold my 90 V8 for a Discovery 3.9 Series1. It has a leak from the front sunroof and I understand it is a standard fault is it thes eals that go or something more serious. I was dryer in the 90. Also has anyone down south got a full size roof rack for the above.
 
Hi I downloaded and printed Manta Mad's instructions on the leaking sunroof. Just before I went to see my local garage and obtain a quote for the work, I thought I would try something other than mastic.
I found a sealant that is used on many marine applications to seal leaks. Obviously, I didnt want to see a bead of any type of sealant. However, this sealant applied is white that dries clear. The capilliary action of the gap takes all of the sealant and fills the gap causing the leakage. We have had some pretty awful downpours over the last few days and I wanted to see if the sealant worked. Just to let you know today we have had a hail storm and torrential rain.
Guess whose nice and dry:D :D :D :D :D
Send me an email if you want the sealant name.
Many thanks Manta Mad for putting the solution forward, keep up the good work.
