Water leak in rear of estate
#8
Ok, sit rep, the upper weather seal has been removed and cleaned as well as the channel area of the roof that the weather seals fits to.

This channel area has 2 "blind threaded " holes that have been "adhesive dot" covered, which may have been letting in water.

I sprayed water in this area last night and it is still getting in, and seems to run down the seam and drip off in the estate right cuddy area.

It also now gushes out from the door seal lower holes like in a similar thread !!

I will attend to some minor corrosion in the blind hole areas and re seal.

I will take off the door seal and check that just in case it is that that is the problem, entering the door seal, filling up the "void" between the u shape and spot welded seam and getting in that way.

I'm having great fun !

I will report back with findings........and some pictures.
