Default Convertible leaks?

Does anyone else have convertible tops that leak through your seals either from the A pillar or the center of side windows? I have a 07 and whenever it rains hard or even when I wash my car it seems to leak.

I have been to Tony and Windward and all they do is use a spray bottle to try and verify the concern... which obviously won't work.

I'm not on here often, no one replies to my post in the sightings page, but I was hoping to get some response this time around. You can msg me on AIM, SdeuceCR or call my cell 203-8483.

I appreciate any help. Thanks for your time.


Chris

You can adjust your seals. Get some soapy water, start your car and put your blower on full, close the doors and spray around the areas that you believe to be leaking. You will see the bubbles from the areas that are not sealing correctly. Now you know exactly where your leaks are, and you can adjust your seals. Adjusting the seals can be a PIA, but if it is bad enough, it would be something worth doing.

I am supprised Honda has not fixed this for you, Good luck..

mines has never leaked. even during the heaviest rains, i would take it back again. your car is new, the dealers should be fixing it, not you.

Thanks guys... I'm gonna try Pflueger. I'm curious, which dealer gives you the best service? I know Honda Windward has the highest CSI scores and is always on the President's List.
