Leaking Soft Top

[cre8toruk]

Hi All,

I have a MK2 Elise S (56 plate), and having moved about 18months ago to a new house without a garage I discover that my roof seems to leak where the car is parked.

Can anyone suggest why it should leak when parked in the rain but not when driving and advise what I can do to stop it ?
I've had to take the carpets out of both foot wells as there was 2 / 3 mm of standing water in there... I could invest in a cover but it does detract a bit from the look ! :-)

Are there some seals or something that need to be replaced?

thanks in advance,

Paul.

Yeah I think so... by the passenger window somewhere there but the source isn't clear.
I can see splash marks where the large drops of water have come in and obviously the floor and carpets are wet (quite a bit on the drivers side too but there's no obvious sign of ingress there, oddly). When I've got in the car on a rainy day a large drip appears on the underside of the release mechanism, so I'm guessing it's something to do with this...
