Hello All. Decide to annoy you lot again, due too MOT day. I noticed for a while how the rain kept coming, it seems I have little green men with hoses. No sorry it's lack of sleep starting to take hold. Seriously though I noticed the ressidue on the door retaining hinge. There I followed it path to my roof drain channel. I personally think there was a bad design fault from the start to the present day.
regards wondering eyeballs Landy90 john

I found that water had been overflowing the front of the gutter and dribbling into the top of a worn. badly fitted door seal, it was working down and through the door seal before dribbling onto my wife's left leg.. so I've filled all gaps around there with silly-cone sealant, just waiting for a rainy day now to see if I'm right...

Pull the door seal away from the A post - there is an obvious join between two sections which needs to be covered with gaffertape or similar. Also use dum-dum. Replace seal. Usually fixes problem.

bet it don't rain for a month now. Mother (not Martyn) went up on our roofº a few days back to put duck tape 'round the boiler flue where it's leaking water, so of course it's not rained since.
º it's a flat roof wot you can get to by going out through an upstairs window.MotorsForum website is not affiliated with any of the manufacturers or service providers discussed here. All logos and trade names are the property of their respective owners.
