    Well that’s a serious level of seal lift you have there. Shocked

    It really is. It's like the whole thing was under tension and eventually the adhesive has failed and it's just popped off. It' been perfectly fine until suddenly leaking yesterday morning. The winter has been super wet so I would have noticed any previous leakage.

    I guess I'll need to try to run some silicone sealant in there from inside as a temporary fix.

    Don’t bother! I spent weeks and multiple concoctions…nothing worked.

    I threw a cheap plastic tarpaulin over the roof held on in all but strong winds with a 4 bunji straps.

    Dont laugh …I actually spread across several strips of cling film between windscreen and sunroof when it first happened while I sourced all the sealants known to man.

    Well, I have to at least try, It's not realistic to think I can constantly keep a tarp over it for the next few weeks, perhaps while parked at home but it will also need to be used whatever the weather.

    Logically if I can see where the seal has failed, it should be possible to fill that gap with some sealant.

    Did you look at removing the external trims and sealing from the outside?
