Needs Advice On Renault Clio Leak



  1.2L 16v Dynamique
Just Went Out And Brought My First Car Couple Of Months Ago (03 1.2L Clio MK2)
After I Brought The Car, Ive Noticed My Roof Just Above Me And The Passenger Side Is Leaking With Water.
I Have A Manual Sunroof Which Was Removed, Checked And Then Re-Sealed With Silicone. The Drains Was Unblocked And The Car Is Still Leaking.
So Decided To Then Seal The Whole Glass To Prevent Any Water Coming In From The Sunroof.
Checked 2 Days Later And Its Still Wet On The Passengers Side (Dunno If Its Because Of The Angle My Cars Sitting), Any Advice On Where You Think Its Coming From? Father Said May Be The Windscreen?
Also My Floor Behind The Drivers Seat And Underneath Is Soaking, I Wont Have Time To Sort It Out Much As I Have A Full Time Job So Weekends Will Only Be The Best Time, So Needs To Find Out ASAP!
Its Killing My Car, Just Need To Sort It Out Before It Damages Anything Else.

Thanks For Reading

Not got a MK3 myself but seem to remember someone mentioning the aerial base can sometimes leak?
 
I Have No Clue What The Issue Is But If You Don't Have Much Time, Surely Typing Like This Takes So Much Longer Than Typing Normally? :)

Tbh it'll be obvious if it's from the sunroof as surely the headlining would be wet, so if it isn't then it'll be elsewhere!

if its the caps your talking about, then that's how i type all the time on computer keyboard ;)

dunno where else it could leak thought, the aerial isn't the problem as its not wet in that area.
gonna buy a car cover to prevent anymore leaks til i get decent weather to pull everything out and have a good look.

Sounds like you need new seals for the sunroof, silicone won't really help you.

Also, that was REALLY hard to read.

Doesn't it say '03 mk2??

If so, there're loads of threads explaining blocked scuttle drains and cxxp behind the front wheel arch liners?.
