thekatthatgotthecream Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Hi there I have a question about a leak in the roof of my fiesta - I have no idea where it came from and only happened once going around a corner after heavy rain when I got water dumped on me, apparently from the roof! I have a 2000 (W reg) ford fiesta zetec; it does have a sunroof but I am very sure the leak didn't come from here. This exact same thing also happened in my old fiesta azura (1994) a few times! Any ideas where its likely to be from and how to fix it? I could never find it in my old car. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the same thing in a G reg fiesta i had and turned out the felt/rubber seal had shrunk and water was seaping through. A new seal at the time was £54 so if thats the problem look for around that price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikos Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I would also say it was the sunroof this happened to me in my old clio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thekatthatgotthecream Posted October 7, 2008 Author Share Posted October 7, 2008 Ok, I wasn't convinced it was the sunroof as it has never leaked in heavy rain before! The same thing happened in my old car which had no sunroof. I will get that checked anyway, though I doubt I'd replace the seal at that price in any case. What drain holes do you mean mintalkin?
