There are drains from the roofs, make sure there is no debris (leaves, dirt, etc...) in or around the rails. You may have to clear the drain tubes themselves. I would think low pressure from an air gun my work but you may want to wait and be advised from someone else. Hope you get it fixed.

Good luck,
Jim

Richard,

I have the same problems. Look through the Disco Technical section. You may have to go down a ways and sift through some stuff but someone posted a great website where you can print out LR directions to fix the leaks.

Mine don't give me trouble YET, but you can bet that when they do I will be following Mike's advice :)

a couple of winters ago we had a typical Ohio winter, rain all day and freeze that night. well anyway when i went out to go to work the next morning the leaking sunroof caused the inside of my Rover to look like an ice cave in some sci-fi movie. it was kinda cool but really a mess as the day got warmer, it went from ice to rain.
