Disco 2 sunroofs fixed

Having experienced first hand the deluge of water that soaked us after driving my new (to me) discovery 2 that leaked in through the sunroof(s) I set to... determined to fix it.

I cleaned all the outer frames where they meet the bodywork, there was evidence of some old silicone. I removed that and degreased it all round. Then I ran a nice neat thin bead of stixall crystal clear extreme power adhesive/sealant all around the edges of both frames, smoothed it down neatly.

I then opened the roof(s) cleaned off all around the rubber seals and smeared them with vaseline.

Two weeks in and plenty of torrential weather, I'm pleased to report it's 100% watertight

Luckily the headlining is unmarked...

Hopefully that will be the end of it

Uh oh! now you've gone and done it!

lol... that's what I was thinking as I typed it... the inner seals are good, and my new outer seal is solid, so it should be OK.. I plan never to open either of the roofs..

I remember being that happy after sorting my sunroof leaks.
Then the headlining on the driver's side A pillar got damp after heavy rain. So that got sorted.
Then the carpet in the passenger front footwell started getting damp near the door, Eventually that seems to be sorted after running a bead of sealant on the underside of the plastic trim at the base of the windscreen to stop water running down and dripping into the ventilation intake.
A Land Rover knows when you are happy about sorting something so it then throws something else at you to keep you busy
