Roof rack mounts seem good and are tight as. And i Also noticed that the wetness seems worse underbraking so i suspect that water is travelling down the gutters into where the windscreen corners are.
If I'm right then two things i could do. Get windscreen replaced and get that top finisher and seals and such and see if that fixes it(expensive) or pump it full of roof and gutter black silicone and fingers crossed hope for the best and if it still leaks then go and get it fixed properly
Thoughts?
