Mine used to leak through the windscreen hinges so i replaced the gaskets and bolts, now it leaks through the vents if they are not closed properly (oh and through the tops of the doors where there is a 1/2" gap)...(oh and through the top of the cab so i always have a wet seat belt)...(oh and up through the floor next to the handbrake)...(oh and through the top of the windscreen, but that one isn't so bad)...(oh and the sunroof) etc.

Mine has a HUGE gap at the top of the drivers door which is made worse when driving at speed as the door bounces on the seal.

At some point prior to me owning it, the door has taken a whack and dropped slightly. But rather than repairing it, the owner at the time adjusted everything to match the new dropped height, so now I can't just replace the door without some major work on my hands! Grrrr!

Just read the ingress manual from Land Rover and might try extending the seals to reach the door.

Whats Dum Dum and where can I get it??
