: Leaking Canopy - Today it rained hard for the first time since owning my S reg Z3 - I noticed a very slight leak from above the doors, right above where the quarter light support meets the top of the window. It appears to be coming from where the seals meet. Last week I reproofed the whole canopy with a BMW approved product so the rest of the canopy is fine. Anyone else have this problem and more importantly any advice greatly appreciated



It's like a gel you put on the roof where it meets the A pillar and it stops the leak. Available at BMW dealers

Happy ending, easy cheap repair, keep a tube in the car...
