Can anybody give me an idea of how to stop the rain inside my car!!

Whenever there is major heavy rain (like everyday) I get a puddle of water in my interior light.

So I took it along to my mates at RAC who I thought would be able to just seal it, but they said I would have to get the whole lot re-sealed under my ariel cause thats where it is leaking from. seeminly its a bad trait in saxo's and 106's??

Anyone else having this bother??smileys/smiley5.gif

happened to me as well , its because the arial on the roof is not sealed properly. not a big job for a garage to reseal the arial (Think i paid about £20). They just take the arail out and reseal it

Yeah my sun roof leaks as well but i can see what the problem is there and its the little rubber seal, it keeps popping out!!

Im not going back near the scrappy!, in the last 6 months ive been at the same scrappy buying bits of the same saxo about 10 times, the two guys that work there are now using me as a standing joke! smileys/smiley9.gifI would have been as well buying the whole car, prob would have been cheaper! ha, god damm saxos!!! lol

Thanks for the advice guys.

next time im buying a ford!!! (just kidding)

Just come on here to find out why i have a water feature in my roof too!! Ive got the centre of the roof out at the mo to see if i could see anything, my first thought was the aerial, think i mite go back out and stick some silicone on that and see what happens. Then go up Shitreon and get a new sunroof seal aswell!! Then sell the fucking tin can before i burn it!!!

all i did was take the plastic surround of and put cilicone around the undernieth of the arial no leak now. £20 at a garage for a 5 minute job. F**K ME.

My sunroof was leaking realy bad, so i have no head lineing in the car at the mo (drying out in my bedroom!) on mine one of the drain holes was blocked, so I stuck something down it to unblock it and it doesn't seem to leak anymore.
