Still got a water leak dripping into the boot. I thought I had fixed this when I resealed the sunroofs and also the skylights, as you can see from the pics, reckon its been leaking for a while.

The skylights and sunroof is completely dry inside, and also the drain pipe is dry too, so have now ruled out them, but it seems to be coming in from behind the gutter rail? As above the rail part os all completely dry.

Have circled where it is constantly dripping tonight, but you can see just to the left of it where I reckon most of the water has come in in the past, as the bottom seam is now just a hole after a bit of prodding with a screwdriver, but there is no water coming out of that hole bizarrely.

I have checked the level, and the front is higher (as per the spirit level shot) so its coming in from the front somewhere (as water cannot go up hill as far as I know – but we are talking about a disco here)....anyone had this sort of water leak before to help me know where to bung some more tiger seal???

Sturox,

Above the gutter will be dry as the roof and gutter are one pressing. The leak will be coming from the gap where the gutter joins the lower body panels. Not sure what to suggest next but you could remove the head lining get a clear picture once and for all.
 
Ok, will have a look along the underside of the gutter rail once the rain has stopped and then run a bead of tiger seal along the whole rail to see if that helps.

Cheers guys
