Hello,

With all the rain that Southern California has been getting, i recently noticed a leak in my sunroof! The leak occurs on the inside, right at the where the seals seem to meet. It isn't "gushing" in, but i can see the water form up, then drip onto the edge of the headliner. Does anyone know how hard it may be to put a new seals in? Or should i have it done professionally? I'll shoot some pics tommorrow of where it leaks. any help is appreciated

You'd probably have to take out the the whole sunroof assembly. Maybe you can put a really thin layer of like petroleum jelly or something on it, to moisten the seal. I wouldn't glop giant blobs on it though.

 

there is also a drain too that ususally gets plugged, i dunno since i havent seen the pics yet. it happened to mine i just got out the compressor and hit it with a shot of air.

 

Search this board for a posts and replys by me. I put a write up here aobut sr for some one else...

 

Hey guys! I was checking in to see if anyone had found out what the issue was with the leaking sunroof. I just got back into town from a road trip and noticed in the rain that my sr is leaking. I checked for any past threads from dragon564 about this and found nothing. I was also interested in finding out about the plug thing, so as to not have to replace the sr assembly. Let me know. Thanks!

PS. Still raining cats and dogs, help!!!

Not sure if this will help you but I would be checking your drain holes first.

 

Thanks Thunder Cloud. Where are these drain holes? Are these in the 2 front corners of the sr itself on the lft and rgt? I was just outside cleaning all of the water off of my passenger seat and all around the roof liner with my Rigid wet/dry vac. Do these problems smell of the drains being plugged?

Thank you in advance! :-)

 

Wish I could help you with the location of the holes...Honestly I don't know yet. I didn't get any reply to that question and my small problem with the Seat Belt turned out to be the rear door seals. My plan is to check out the drain holes next spring when it gets warm enough.

I would think and still believe that each corner of that sun roof has got to have a drain hole. You should be able to see them with the roof open but maybe not...

Anyone have any Idea?

 

I still have leakage problems, but after opening the sunroof, I saw what looks like two drain holes in the corners of where the sunroof sits. I will be blowing some compressed air tommorrow to see if it clears it up. I'll try and get some pics tommorrow.

 

Mine leaks out of the rocker switch which controls the sunroof. :p

 

Cool, Thanks for doing that if you can. Sounds like the two holes you noticed were in the front. Be sure to check the back of the frame as well for any more just to be safe. My thought here is that you may have a back one that is plugged and the fronts can't handle it all on their own. Might as well clean em all while your up there.
