My sunroof was leaking, and it opened up. However, I could not close it.
The buttons , unfortunately, stopped working for some reason. Is there a
way to fix this?
One drain on my sunroof was stopped up with a small acorn hull. I cleaned
it out and the problem was eliminated.
Great advice.
Thanks
what if the sunroof is leaking from one side? on the passenger side
I’ve sealed my sunroof, or tried to, but its still leaking……Please
Help!!!
Thankyou thankyou
Glad to help out. I was so frustrated when I repeatedly was swimming in my
car.
such a legend. thanks for the help!!!
absolutely great video. I was thinking on using duck tape or maybe silicon
to seal the darn thing but cleaning the drain is a better idea. didn’t know
there were any. My leakage has caused other problems in that when it rains
I get shorts and my battery gets drained. again thanks.
Thank you for the Video. I have 04 LR DISCOVERY 2. This car have 2 sunroof,
both are leaking.
Ok where does the drain tube come out at the bottom? I am having the same
problems but the drain tubes at the top are not plugged but I am still
getting water in the head liner, driver floor board, and the front dome
light.
Thanks for the comment!
You’re welcome. Glad to help out.
I’d try placing the sunroof in the Caprice. It’s a nice car, and it sounds
like you won’t be as happy with a convertible because of the space.
I’m planning to get a moonroof installed on my chevy caprice(2004). Do u
think I should just drop the idea and get a convertible. I love this car
because of the v8 engine and the space for all the passengers, you don’t
get this kind of legroom in any convertible. I don’t know man help me out.
PERFECT!! This last week, I discovered a soaked floor and ceiling in my
car… The same problem in my last car was one of the main reasons I got
rid of it, and I REALLY didn’t want to deal with repair bills or getting
rid of another car that I otherwise love. Drains were plugged to the point
that I couldn’t even see they were there, cleaned them out with a q-tip and
the shop-vac, and BAM! Tested with a liter of water, and it all drained
down by the wheels! THANK YOU!!!
good vid this happened to me there good to clean often if you park under
trees etc
This seriously was the best explanation of drain cleaning. Short, sweet, to
the point. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.
Thanks for the tip friend.
I have water coming in from the rubber on the roof to seal the sunroof when
closed but when it rains it still comes in and the roof in side is very wet
I have put silicon round the rubber but it still happens
That could be the case. However, the drains could still be blocked. I’d
remove the driver side molding and inspect the drain for cracks. The
molding will come off with a little pressure. If you don’t see a crack, I’d
suspect the drain is blocked. Check the surface of the drain, if that isn’t
clogged, then I’d be a small plumber’s snake (around $10 at WalMart, Lowes,
etc) to place carefully down the drain to push any debris through.
Or should I say water tight (not air tight). Ha.
super helpful vid..much appreciation
I have cleared the drain holes in the roof and windscreen (under the hood).
Its still leaking! I’m tired of having a damp smelling wet interior. Every
solution forum and video i see and read has suggestions but none of them
work for me! Its making me regret getting this car. Any suggestions? all
drain holes are clear and flow when water is poured down them, door seals
are fine. Water comes through on the passenger side above the sun visor.
Help!!
Nice!
Thanks man. I will try that but currently the weather sucks to do that, so
I put some tape temporarily across the sunroof.
Oh wow. That sucks.
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching.
Wow Great tips and video. I really say a little water collecting in the
drain of the sunroof and saw two holes and thought that what it was for.
ill clean mines as soon as i get a chance. (its rainy season now) i wonder
can a cat sleeping on top your sunroof cause it to sink?
@TheFiratunal You are welcomed! Thanks for watching.
Oh man, good luck finding the leak.
Hey man thx for the video ,I have alittel shake in my sunroof even when
it’s closed all the way when I press on it from the inside I feel like a
click any ideas plz thanks
I have this problem now with my Lincoln LS. I’m going to use ur knowledge
and see if it work for me. Thanks
I figured this out the hard way, the previous owner didn’t clean the T Top
drains and now the floorboards are rusted gonna cost a grand to fix that.
I Have a 03 bmw 325i ….. every time it rains my floor mat is wet. but
when i wash the car or just soak the car with water to see where the leak
might be coming from it never leaks. do you think that i have the same
problem ?
@RichsMethods yeah i checked to locate the drains and i found them, and
they seemed clear.I didnt have time to test them but it seemed really
clear.
Was that an arrested development quote? Ha
Is it sagging because it’s wet? Or it’s just sagging down? If it’s just
sagging down get some spray adhesive (Michael’s, WalMart, pretty much any
where). Try to pry an are of the sagging cloth down so you can fit the
nozzle of the spray adhesive under the fabric. Keep your windows open for
ventilation. Then just spray and push the fabric back up on the roof. Make
sure you don’t over saturate the cloth or it’ll seep through and you’ll see
it when it dries.

hey man i have a 2000 jeep gran cheroke,and is leaking from the sunroof,i
ont know what to do?im going to try this do you have other idea if this one
dosent work?thanks for your time and help
Thanks for the tip, this has been a headache for me, going to give it a
try.
I have a 2004 gmc yukon I’m also having the same problem, but it doesn’t
have a sunroof. Driver floor board keeps on getting wet and don’t know were
its coming from. If you could help with any advice I would really
appreciate it, thanks. .
just a random statement, I have had this same issue on my civic, blew air
through the holes and it worked. I now have a 00 jeep cherokee and my floor
is soaked, just like yours was, i’ll give it a shot again and keep my
fingers crossed. However, if yor holes were as plugged as what they were,
how is water leaking to the floor when they are plugged completly shut?
It gets in the ceiling of the car and then comes out at the more tilted
part of the car. Mine is from the front, once on the side when my car was
leaned on a hill.
Nice explanation, but if the drain was plugged how did the floorboard get
wet. I assumed that if water wasn’t escaping the sunroof area, how did it
end up inside the car on the floor?
Is clicking sound coming from the sunroof’s electric motor? If so it’s most
likely the cable from the sunroof that’s slipping inside the motor.
