Title: Sunroof Leaking
Post by: rowlers on 18 July 2005, 14:58

My sunroof started leaking yesterday.
It is coming in at the back drivers side corner.

Anyone any ideas on how to seal it up??

I'm guessing the recent hot weather has dried the seals up a bit an now the don't seal as well


Cheers

There's a channel that is screwed on to the back of the sunroof which has a habit of rusting out .It is quite easy to re[place but make sure you don't put too much sealant on to were it mates to the sunroof otherwise it blocks the chanel and you will still get leaks!  :wink:

Yep as above :)

I completely sealed my old 8V, 6 years back as i could not aford the 2 sets of seals, used black silicon, so the sunroof never opened.

I then sold it to a couple that were driving to the south of spain  :grin: Must of been hot  :grin:
