Hello All
If you read my previous comments on my efforts to repair my Montego estate I kept blaming the rust rat for all the damage, it had caused, however I owe this rust rat a bit of an apology!!!
It turns out that "some" of the water inside the car has been coming from the sun roof, dripping onto the passenger sear, making its way through that, then through the floor carpet, into the rear foot-well and then rotting out the floor-pan.
So, has anyone managed to repair the sun roof, i.e. there is a white coloured rubber band that surrounds the glass of the sun roof.
This rubber band has a "D" shaped section and "should" be incorporated inside the fabric surrounding the glass. I think the idea is that when the roof is closed the "D" is compressed to make a water tight seal.
Right now, this white band is hanging loose below the glass, thereby letting the water through.
How can I fix this, besides sticking some water proof tape over the gap in the roof/glass join, which I have done as temporary measure until next summer.
Any ideas would be greatly received.
kind regards
Africar
