The rubber seals on the vent flaps were leaking on ours, it was fairly easy to remove the flaps and fit new seals.
 
thanks, my vent flat are actually sealed with a big bead of black sealer, I might cut it out and put fresh stuff in see dos that help.
 
Its a bodge but works well and lets be honest its what everyone does, also works on the the series models.
Hardets bit is sealing around the screen mount.

Ok thanks, Im guessing proper way to seal it would be windscreen off and replace the seal?

Tec7 sealer it Is so, will go at it tomorrow, a wet floor is annoying me
 
Its not only the floor, all that lovely water will get into places you dont want it to and cause corrosion.
 
Try Waxoyl (or similar) on the seals as it creeps into the gaps and semi-hardens, preventing leaks. You can use black but the clear type is less messy.
 
If the rubber that holds the screen glass to frame is cracked water gets in that way too.
