It can't be true, Defenders don't leak, if they did Landrover would print a Defender water ingress manual. Oh hang on a minute, they do, and it's right here...............Links and Downloads Manager - Australian Land Rover Owners .............. and it's only 35 pages long ;)
i would check the bulkhead to windscreen bolts and the seals on the clamps
Hi there
I have leaks too, but I think its the leaking roof, which I will get around to. Try this link as it may help

2234jones - thankyou so much for your link. got a bit of work to do now and a few tube s of silicon to buy. For christ's sake, they must have used my def as a model for that manual. I'd forgotten how many places it comes in.
cheers gerald
Shouldn't it e my Defender diesn't leak when it rains. Anyone else ever had this problem:D:D.
My solution is to park on different angles each time so it all runs out.
Use Sikaflex. Dum Dum is good but this stuff is better and will most likely outlast your vehicle. It's what the pro's use now too.Quote:

It's readily available from Bunnings, etc.
Mine leaks through the worn out rivets in the roof gutters, probably due to previously fitted roofracks.
I now park it in the garage if it looks like rain, problem solved :D
