Hi,

My wife's J10 has developed a water leak inside of a car. The water seems to be entering through the passenger door pillar. Car has got panoramic roof. Is that a common issue with these cars? We took the roof trim off and I hoped for a drainage holes or anything but no luck. It was just a lot of dirt collected in the rail.


Cheers

Matt

does the car have an opening roof ?
Is the windscreen original Nissan - poor installation of a replacement often leads to leaks

Hi, no just a glass roof.

Welcome to this forum.

I suspect that could also possibly be a windscreen sealing problem.

I can't recall it being mentioned before in that area. The sunroof is usually reliably sealed.

I know it happens on cars with the sunroof with the front drain channel blocked. But if you said yours does not open, then I can only assume the sealing is going away.

Thanks
