Water leaks...

Right, I've given it all I've got ! Four hours messing about at 1c and I can't feel my hands or feet, I have reinstalled the headlining as the sunroofs were nice and sealed now, the n/s rear quarter is all trimmed back up and dickie seat replaced.

I masked up and ran another wide bead of sealant along under the gutter, the top trim lip which locates over the gutter edge was filled with silicone and the trim replaced, the joint clips were then filled with sikaflex and replaced. As far as I can see, there is no way that any water can now get from the gutter channel to the underside. If it leaks from the gutter now, it will probably leak forever.

At the rear corner where the straight run of gutter joins the corner run, there is a little taped joint, I'm guessing that this is the "zinc tape" as mentioned in the Landrover technical bulletin for leaks? It was ok at the top and face but underneath there was a little gap where tape had lifted, this looked like another possible leak so that was well covered too.

Hopefully tomorrow I'll get the rest of trim back in and that'll be the end of the water at the back at least

Well, its been hosed, rained on, washed, hosed and as far as i can see, she's dry inside She's got more mastic on her than i'd have wanted to use but end result = dry landy

Now i can get the rest of the trim fitted and get back to the other jobs like the ****ing steering box

finally fixed mine ,it was also leaking thru gutter put some liquid rubber in gutter and all sealed now ,also painted boot floor with it only problem is it stinks and have to drive with windows open to breathe its been a week now and still smells of paint fumes

Its bloody good stuff though.

i'm going to be doing a bit of in the engine bay, where the water collects at the backs of the inner wings.

Cheers for the offer but I think I have it under control, I've sorted the sunroof leaks out, one of the hoses had been trapped between the body and front headlining trim/interior light fascia and the sealent had let go from the plastic drain holes.

I can now see water coming in from both alpine windows so they will be coming out this week along with the side windows, all going back with a bit of window tint and large amounts od silicon as all the rubbers are cracked. Can't afford to replace them yet.

I am going to dry the roof lining out and give it a couple of coats of PVa glue to seal it then a mate of mine is going to cover it for me, he does boat trimming so it should look ok.

Should have my 2" lift kit this week, replace all the bushes then fit some 265/85/16 Cooper Discoverers to give me a bit more lift, just want to get it so it's dry inside and looking a bit moody on the road.

This is mid life crisis step 2!!!!

thought i had finally sealed it when i find another puddle on driver side off the boot turns out it was coming in thru the fuel cap ,all sorted, now to seal the passenger foot well oh what fun

I need to do the rear side window seals, they are split at the corners and leak.

Fix one leak, another pops up
