Hello Everyone.

My D3 Sunroof is starting to leak. I replaced the drains 2 years ago and recently tested again and its not them. A small amount of water is sitting up behind the head lining and running forward when I brake. Ive checked the drains in the drip tray and they look clear.

I think the glass seal is allowing water in. I can hear air coming in when I am at 100kmh. I believe the glass seal is welded to the glass. I've priced a new glass from land rover and its very high. Does anyone know where to try to repair the seal or find a cheap option to replace glass and seal? RL Parts in Florida advertises the glass for US 395. Surely I can find one in Australia for reasonable money.

Grateful for your thoughts.

Have you checked the rear drains ? I took the glass panel out and cleaned and lubricated the seal after clearing the rear drains and some debris that was caught in the tracks, i had water pooling in the rear that would rush to the front and overflow the drip tray.
The seal will never be 100% sealed and any water that gets passed with drain away if the drainage tubes are clear.
