Sun roof leak

[disco]

With all the cold weather and frost the sunroof on my GF clio is leaking. is it worth getting it fixed or should I wait for waremer weather? Anything temp I can do? The wet patch is behind the passenger sun visor.

I'll guess it's a Mk1, so replace the rubber at the base of the aerial and then either replace the full sunroof seal or bodge it with silicone.

Its a 2004 mk2

my old dynamique sunroof leaked

guy i know who works at reno said they are expensive to get re-sealed.

so i traded it in

It had to happen on the car I don't have extended warrenty on Grr.

New sunrof frames are mega money.

For the winter, just tape it up with the wide carpet tape and look for a fix in the new year. f**k pissing about with all that in this weather.

Mine did the same on my current mk1, and my neighbours does on his mk2.

I sealed mine shut neatly with some silicone

I took the headlining out to see if any bolts/clips were loose too as water was running in like a tap! and low and behold, all 10 of them had about 3-7 threads showing! tightened them up (slicing hands open on the unfinished plastic) and so far so good, NO WATER!!!!

Did the above about 3 months ago.

Happy Winter Motoring FTW!

Perhaps if I just paint the car swap the plates chnage the engine, gearbox, susspension, interior and wheels over between the two cars I could get it done under warrenty

I've no idea if this is any good, or even works. But this company claim to reseal http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150314425839.

mine was leaking like a siv, took it into renault last thursday and got it done. As said it is expensive, cost me £119 but it has stopped it leaking and saves it going mouldy on the inside of the roof...
