Disco 3 new car, old fault !!

We had a spot of rain the other night (weds) and I noticed some water standing on the roller blind but had been in the back so thought it was just water that had blown in. Always the optimist !!
Got up this morning after more heavy rain, more water standing on the blind, also roof lining wet n/r/corner. Pulled down roof lining and rear trim, it lookes like ingress is from the satnav areil blanking plate on the roof. Have removed panel and resealed, now waiting for more rain to see if I've got the Censored .
Is this a common leak or am I just lucky ???

Umm...

I might have the same problem, a small water mark on roller cover a couple of times now, had a look up in the roof and thought it might be the rear washer pipe leaking.... Will watch replys with interest Smile

Could be the high level stop light leaking?

Updale on the water leak, thought I'd got the Censored at the first attempt as we had a good downpoor the other and and when I checked the roller blind, all was dry Very Happy . I then drove to work which is on very twisty country roads, got to work and looked in the back as passing and guest what, water on the roller blind Big Cry .
Pulled down the roof panel to expose the wiring/screen wash pipe, this time it lookes like its coming in past rubber dromets surrounding the wiring coming from the rear door. There are 2 but it was wet on the n/s one. I removed both and sealed round them and refitted. Now waitng for more rain Neutral

Also, just to be thorough, some of the early LR tech literature is incorrect.

The GPS antenna is in the high-mount stop lamp assembly...

The PTI/SDARS antenna is the roof-mounted pod (SDARS is sat radio, avail in NAS)...
