Front seal or roof leak

[FeelthePathos95]

 

Been getting water in the interior after rainstorms. Seems to come in somewhere above the sun shade on the driver's side and traveling toward passenger side before dripping to the floor. No obvious entry point seen on roof or windshield. Anybody have a recommendation for a silicone sealant or some other type of sealant I can apply as a cheap stopgap fix? The old girl is nearing 300K and showing her age. Probably going to replace her this summer, so not looking to spend anything more than I have to.

If I were to guess, I would look at the drain lines. I've heard that they clog up from time to time depending on how much debris is in the tray. Might be worth looking at that. The outer seal is basically a dust cover. It doesn't really seal anything off. I have 2" electrical tape going all the way around mine until I figure out how to glue a new one back on. It's working for now.

+1 for checking the sunroof drains. I ran with no outer seal for quite a while and never got water inside.

I've had a windscreen leak along the top on my WD21 and my D22. Sealant can delaminate and allow water in.

This doesn't sound like exactly the same symptoms but may help... At the end of this thread, sunroof drain was not routed right. (The main part of that thread has nothing to do with this.)
