The leaky sunroof

nitro4me · 11-20-2010, 11:23 PM

i have a 06 megacab i bought used about two months ago, we just got our first rain and went to town and there was water dripping from the factory dvd player, i have washed it before and never saw a leak but i think with the rain water sitting and puddling for so long it made its way in, is this a common problem or is there a common fix??? thanks for any info P.S. i hate sunroofs..

Use the search... I had the EXACT same thing... has not happened since (one time only). I did catch it once where it did not close properly. I had to open it then close it again. Maybe a fluke?

I have read about the drain tubes getting clogged. I repeat SEARCH for the info.

Good luck

I would say either it was just slightly slightly open and didn't seal, or maybe you have a drain that is plugged up. I've had that happen with other cars that I owned with moon roofs. If the drain backs up, the water has no place to go but into the car/truck.

check the seal around the roof, keep it protected with some good rubber/vinyl protectant.

check the drains (as someone said if they dont drain the water will drain elsewhere)

also, check the 3rd brake light. Just because you have a sun roof doesn't mean its leaking.

my sun roof and brake light leaked.
