Hello all
So, after wracking everyone's brains on here, and reading through all the posts, I decided to tackle the leaking Disco. Have been lucky enough to garage it and park with a little thought to stop most downpours becoming internal car washes.
Although had an electrical fault from it, I knew it had to be something different than the usual sunroof and blocked downpipe issues.
Sure enough, after 20 mins of roof dismantling, headlining down and a little testing, it turned out to be the corner of the windscreen, where it is bonded to the metalwork of the body, just by the pillar.
I figured this may be it, as the speed that the water came into the cabin, and quite how fast the 'stream' was, made me think it was a little more direct.
Bead of silicone later, and test 2. And, unfortunately, it leaked a little further down the line, so I did a silicone run along the join completely.
No leak as yet.....
Fingers crossed. Thought might be of help, and will keep you all updated.
