Hi - had some troubles with a roof leak- various seals replaced and hood rewaxed etc. Drainage holes cleared. Much better but still significant amount of water ending up in left hand black plastic tray and boot has water in the outside of the toolbox. Can anyone recommend a specialist repairer in the Guildford area that will be reasonably priced? Thanks

Are you referring to the tray in the boot? Do you park uphill? The other thing to look at is the plastic cover that is in the hood compartment. This is screwed down and sometimes benefits from a reseat and tighten. You need to stop the hood fold operation part way through to get to it. Switch the ignition off when you do this to take away power to the motors. The other things to check are the boot and light seals. A bit of Gummi Pflege can also help.

Thanks I'll take a look. I mean the black tray ion the left in the boot. Water seems to be running round the corner of the folded roof plastic.
