Leaking Safari Roof and Door Seals Flooding The Car And other Leaks and Problems

[nodric]

The adhesive strip is about 10mm wide and I have more tack in my spit than it has. I just think they are

The sag was the entire length of the door bottom, but I am minded to have them glue it as they seemed to have solved the water ingress. If it is just better glue then I can give that a whirl. The issue grows if it starts to fail in more areas. I just think Ineos needs to manufacture a far better quality seal.

I am off for a drive to Big Bend and surrounding areas next week, and then it will be back at the dealer. Fingers crossed this is the only issue I have and I will not encounter more. This is the car we all wanted. Just fix the effin seals FFS!

In the meantime Sewell are hosting a breakfast and a first owners social on June 15th. Invite only but if you are a customer then you should get one. I will be there. Hope to meet some of the local owners and console each other over leaks.

@nodric, have a safe and fun Big Bend trip! Please post about it when you get back, if you don't mind. We're planning to go in October. Unfortunately, won't be able to make it to Sewell social. Heading to Padre Island National Seashore.

Taking the new Insta360 Ace Pro for some light offroading on the Old Ore Rd and Black Gap Rd. I used to trial in my Series IIa. I'll be OK. I have a fridge and low ratio. What more could I possibly need

That is the same stuff the dealer is using

My door seals on driver and passenger are both sagging down now. I push them up into place for now but wow that really shouldn't be an issue. Guess I will talk to Sewell.

Bloody Hell - what a moan of a thread! Hopefully, all problems are being resolved!

Mine is being done today by my local dealer, hopefully it will mean I haven't got a mobile swimming pool anymore.

No leaks for me (yet?!?) but I plan on going and look forward to meeting everyone!

Please let us know if the problem gets resolved, and if so how, and also if the seals stay stuck to the door

Will do. They've had a problem with the replacement steering column, so it won't be until later next week awaiting parts.

Replacement steering column

Yes, a small click from the joint nearest the bulkhead (firewall) when slow speed manoeuvring.
The dealer had one in stock, so must be a known issue.

This is frustrating to say the least.
We only have 100 miles on ours. Passenger door is a waterfall after a nights rain.
I have read all 10 pages of this… Still does not appear that there is a real fix, please correct me if I’m wrong and steer me in the right direction so that I can go to my dealer with the correct information.

Your dealer has access to the TSB to conduct the fix. Will the fix last forever? That remains to be seen

Deluge this morning. There was a puddle on the front passenger floor mat. Underneath was dry. No one else rode in my Grenadier today. New mystery.

Sounds like the cabin filter leak TSB...
