Water leak in load space area |
|
Hi Guys,
Was wondering if anyone has experienced a water leak at the back end of their disco 3. When it rains heavy I seem to have water dripping through the very rear interior light onto the loadspace cover which leaves a little puddle for me. Would love to know where it is coming in. Was thinking that it must be either the satnav ariel on the rear of the vehicle or possibly the glass roof?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Keith D4 HSE Lux MY16 Club Waitomo

Is the phone aerial seal the most likely suspect for water coming out of the seatbelt mounting on row 2 too?
Just behind the passenger doors are two plastic covers (with some thin webbing inside - presumably something to do with the seatbelts???). Every now and then, I get half a dozen drops falling onto the row 2 seating. Nearly always the drivers side

Apart from the fin aerial, it could also be the CHMSL, which takes a wodge of silicon to rectify.

I had the same leak today , stripped the plastic panel off and found the water to be getting in where the rubber sleeves are ( the there is two of these a rh and a lh one , mine was leaking in through the rh one)
I cleaned the area and lube with a bit of silicone re checked and hopefully sorted.
To check yours pull the interior panel off and take a look where these rubbers come through.
Hope this helps you ? 'Just because you're breathing doesn't mean you're alive'

Mine is leaking through the sat nav aerial. Only trouble is mine is held on with 5 point torx screws. I can't find a screwdriver or bit to fit it though Jarrod

Used to see them on the prison vans and we used normal torx to remove them, never did manage to find the proper tool!

I tried using the normal 6 point bits but because of the peg in the centre they wouldn't undo. Found some 1/4 drive ones on eBay cheap enough so ordered a set of them. If there's 2 on the sat nav antenna you can bet there's others somewhere else. Jarrod
