Default arg, getting wet

My roof is leaking (sort of)

While its raining the inside stays dry.

BUT

the front half of the driver side roof seal seems to fill with water. When i am driving along and hit the brakes water, which has somehow found its way into the seal, drains out onto my leg.

When i open the roof water then comes out from where the roof splits.

Has anyone seen this before on their cars and how can i stop it.

Hopefully anyone reading this will know what i'm talking about

There are 3 other threads about this currently. Mine does & its at Honda getting the window adjusted. Apparently the dealers i spoke have never seen this problem, this board tells me otherwise. Well done Honda.

I get this too, but only when I've been washing the car.. As a result I never really thought it was a problem until I read your post!

I'll have to see what happens next time I use it in the rain

where do you put the grease. I assume this is silicone grease?

Also how much is a new seal and is it easy to fix?
