It rained sooooooooooooooooo hard today, way harder then it usally does. my crx is leak free, other then my cargo area a little bit when it rains fairly hard( tail light gaskets i know...)

but i got in my car and was like hmmmm way is there a puddle of water on my ebrake console... looked up. it was dripping from my sunroof. dead smack in the middle. it wasn't leaking that bad, enough for my wrist band to soak it up and never leaked while i drove for 30 mins etc...

do u think that maybe my sunroof wasn't closed all the way? or could it be a new leak?

 

Well, was it closed enough?

 

clean your sunroof drains...

 

yea clean the drains, you could sit in the car and have a friend douse the roof with a hose to see if its a new leak if you dont get a leak it prolly just wasnt closed

 

i';ll just c when i was the whip tommorrow. how do i clean the drains? i know from the tail lights way. but isn't there 2 more drains?

Q: Is that a swimming pool in the back?

If you're collecting water in the spare tire well, the likeliest culprits
are the drain tubes from your sunroof. Pop the sunroof open, and clean any
trash out of the tracks and corners. Get a flashlight and shine it in the
corners where you'll see some holes. These holes are there for a reason;
they're supposed to let water drain to the ground rather than onto your
head and inside the car. The holes lead to tubes that lead underneath
the car, and the problem occurs when the tubes become clogged or
disconnected, in which case, the water ends up in the back with the spare
tire rather than on the pavement.

To fix clogged tubes, blow them clean by shooting compressed air into the
holes at the corners of the sunroof (being careful not too use too much
pressure, or the tubes will come off, which is another problem).

To fix detached tubes, you'll have to take off some of the plastic trim
inside the car near the turn signals and slide the tubes back on. Some
owners have recommended using silicone sealant to ensure that they remain
attached.

Water dripping in from the rear headliner, the hatch struts, or the
plastic trim inside the car even when the sunroof drains are clear is a
good indication that it's coming in underneath your rear window sprayer
nozzle. Rather than buy a new sprayer nozzle, try this first: take off the
sprayer by lifting the nozzle gently and sliding a thin piece of plastic,
such as a credit card under the edge and pushing in to release one end of
the barb clip which holds the nozzle in. The other edge can then be
released in the same fashion. Once you have the sprayer off, coat the
underside with clear silicone caulking and refit it, but be sure to wipe
off any excess. </TD></TR></TABLE>
