2000dentedcivic Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 This is my first post so please bear with me. So I recently purchased a 2000 Honda Civic EX coupe with the D16Y8 and 5-speed manual. As of about two weeks ago I noticed that water is leaking into the car when it rains and it is getting worse and destroying the interior roof of the car. It is leaking mainy near where the interior roof and the windshield meet. Water mainly gets on the floor and edge of the seats. The car dose have a sunroof but I have not noticed leaks around there. The outside rubber seal around the windshield was very loose. I was wondering if anybody knew what was causing this problem or if this is common. I've never dealt with this with another car and also can anybody help? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedDemon Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 its the seal, have it replaced pronto. had to replace mine in my hatch because it did the same thing. its common if the car was driven in the winter and encountered salt along with summer sun, it will rot that strip no problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamEj6 Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 i had my window replaced in my wagon and it leaked like that. had to go back three times to get them to fix that sh!t. they just kept adding that glue gunk on the inside and eventually it worked.

Bagby Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 I had the same problem, most likely your going to have to get it replaced, don't just seal it over because any moisture that is in the groove where the windshield meets the car will cause the windshield holder to rust out. Go to the nearest window place and ask them what they can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
