nicks90 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 the wife phoned me yesterday complaining that she was getting a wet shoulder! for some reason water was dripping from the headlining just above the drivers door - off the grab handle wotsit - and after about 10 minutes of driving in the horrendous rain, the water leak has travelled along the bottom edge of the headlining on the right hand side to above the back door. Bottom edge all soaking wet and dripping onto the door cards! the area around the sunroof is dry, as it the headlining from the sunroof to the right hand bracket of the drivers sunvisor. But from that point to the bottom edge of the lining above the door its soaked.... I know there may be a leak from the sunroof - but surely that would mean all the headlining would get wet....which it isnt! so could there be anywhere else it leaks from? are there any connectors in the drain pipe from the sunroof that are above/to the right of the drivers sunvisor? or could it be leaking from the top right of the windscreen where them black trim strips meet with the roof? cheers Nick (Mildly miffed off wife giving me earache) Clayton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope this helps. firemannotsam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynall Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I think front roof drains are at front of the sunroof and go down the a pillars. The rears are also at the front and go forwards and then backwards under the alpine lights out to just behind the rear lamps. Lynall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
