JoeJoe Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Hello all,New to the site and new to car ownership. Have a 1.4 petrol, 3 dr Lupo with the full length sunroof. Its a canopy style and retracts automatically from a control on the dashboard. Have found recently that after heavy rain, the guides for the rollers on the sunroof fill up with water, so that when you start the engine, it leaks through the roof onto your lap! Don't have a manual for this car (2001 model) and can't find any drains, scuppers, or rubber nozzles anywhere.... Can anyone suggest how to fix this problem, or where the drains might be hidden?Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fob163 Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Hi Welcome! i have a lupo openair too! quite a rare car these days. anyway down to business! the guides shouldnt fill with water, as i have found in this incredibly harsh rain we are having it should seal as good as anything the only thing i can think of is the material of your roof may have worn and split? possibly in need of a replacement canvas. although the real boffins will be along soon to correct me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeJoe Posted November 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Ahh, cheers. Ya I hadn't thought of that. Just assumed there'd be a drain hidden somewhere! Will have a close inspection while the boffs put their heads together then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
