Hi Nelly

all I did mate was open them right up cleaned all around the rubbers with fairy liquid then used the misses nail polish remover to rub on the rubber let it dry then seal it down this is what I was told to do Im not sure if its coming in through the outer rubber can this happen.

thanks for the quick reply.

HI Dave,

If you do a search , top right hand corner , there are multiple threads about the sunroof , plus other locations for the leaks to happen. Personally I removed them completely including the frame and resealed the outer and this stopped it.

There are how tos included in the threads on here, you just need to look. But not a big job, just make sure your hands are clean.
