Wet roof lining and cargo cover

Featured Replies

Getting stuff out of the boot today to be met with a puddle on the cargo cover. Look at the roof lining and it was soaked on the drivers side/near the boot side window, which had obviously been dripping onto the cargo cover. The car is parked on my drive which has a slight incline towards the rear. I assume it could only be the sunroof or roof bar fixings, but are they known for issues?

 

Cheers

The sunroof drains are prone to blocking, but the rear boot seal is also prone to failing as are the mountings for the boot hinges. I had the same issue and used clear silicone to reseal the boot hinges (without removing, just cleaning). I then got a new boot seal and put clear silicone on the inside of the seal where it goes over the pinch weld around the boot. I now have a dry boot. 

Hope this is helpful?

Heres a link to a previous thread on Brisky.

Thanks, never considered the hinges and it mentions the aerial which I'll have to look at too. Last thing I needed is finding a leak with the winter months round the corner, but this could explain the condensation/freezing issue I have every winter.........
