Window Leaks

[M-G]

Swapped the Chimaera for a Tuscan at the weekend and still can't believe how awesome the car is. Had great fun getting used to the car over the weekend in the sun and now in the pouring rain!

I seem to have two water leaks on the windows with the door pockets getting rather wet. I have looked for other posts and seen some similar problems, but no definate cure? Is there a one or is it just trial and error with the seals?

Mark hoping the summer has not passed completely!

Mine was leaking at the point were the rubber
on the roof meets the rubber on the screen right
in the top corner. I bought a length of new roof
rubber from dealer (£20)and slotted it in using
silicone spray and cut it a fractiom longer for
a good fit in the corner. At first it was slightly
too long and stopped the window from going all the
way up, but with a fraction more cut off it is now
fine even in the rediculous rain of the last few days.

Same as Col, my drivers door leaks as the seal on the roof lip is too short at the front. The passenger one sits on the rubber on the windscreen frame whereas the drivers one finishes just before it, so the water runs down between them. I've been meaning to sort it for a while now.

Thanks, its going back to the dealer for a replacement rear screen so I'll get them to look at the leaks. I checked the seal fit and they don't meet the seal at the top of the windscreen. I also discovered last night that the windscreen leaks!

Mainly as there is bugger all sealant at the bottom of the screen. Whoever owned the car before me never took it out in the rain.

Thanks
