- 💧 Here we have a Land Rover Discovery which has come in for a water leak it has got front foot well and rear footwell wet due to the common issue with a front sunroof pipes being corroded and then allowing water to pass through in to the car And allows water to come down the inner of the bulkhead instead of Releasing through front arches.

A B O U T
The videos shown on this channel are taken from inspection reports, filmed for the customer who has paid for a diagnostic inspection, which comes with a video report. We share them here for informational purposes because the hardest part of fixing leaky cars is finding the leak.
After the initial inspection, if the customer agrees to have the work done, we film progress reports for the customer and will sometimes include them here.

F E Q U E N T L Y A S K E D Q U E S T I O N S
Q: How much does it cost?
A: We don't know. That's why we do a diagnostic inspection. We cannot answer the question of how much it costs to fix before we know the extent of the problem. Prices for our inspection and hourly rates can be found on our website.
Q: Why don't you show us how to fix it?
A: This isn't a DIY channel, we are sharing videos we take for the customer as part of our inspection process. Furthermore, the vast majority of the fixes are simple, and if you need to ask how to fix them, you probably should let a professional deal with it. See below:
⚠️ C A U T I O N ⚠️
⚡ Electricity and water is a dangerous combination. This is especially the case with electric and hybrid cars, but most modern cars have electronic control units in areas which are prone to water ingress. These are easily damaged and can be expensive to replace.
💥 Areas that need to be accessed to fix water leaks may contain airbags. These are explosive and can be quite sensitive. Tampering with them could lead to serious injury.
☣️ Cars that have been damp for a prolonged period often contain mould, mildew and dangerous bacteria. Mould spores can seriously affect the health of people with asthma, the old, very young, and people with compromised immune systems. Mould should always be taken seriously.

What about the fix??
I have a lr4 and when ever it rains … all the lights come on my dashboard … then usually goes away , but it getting worse … my floor ain’t wet …. Could it still be my drain tubes ?
My car is becoming a little nightmare 😅😅😑😑😑
Anyone knows where to get a replacement set, to replace the lot?
Any parts company should sell an improved set of hoses for the sunroof. But you should also check the windscreen. Another fault of range rovers is the screen becomes unbonded.
So, are you saying that the drain tube from the Sunroof cassette to behind the air intake grille is perished somewhere between and leaking internally before it can drain out in the outer wheel arch?
If so, can It be replaced? What is the fix?
Thanks for the effort!
Yes, the pipes may have shrunk or the connectors perished. Although I believe with the Range Rovers, the problem is usually at the end where it meets that grommet. Many times when we find leaks on sun roof drainage systems, somebody has already tried a repair and the parts or covered in silicone sealant or been glued. It is best to buy a replacement set and replace the lot. It is often the case that manufacturers improve the design or quality of materials, and that is what you get with the replacement.
Have you ever seen it where the sunroof itself is leaking rather than the drainage pipes? My car is locally and they’re saying it’s a full sunroof replacement at £2,000 + VAT just for the parts, not to mention taking the headliner down etc. Is it realistic that the cassette itself would have a leak in it? Thanks for any help
Hard to know isn’t it
Hi how did you repair this ? Thanks
The silicone hoses shrink and pull off, or they perish and leak. So we replace all the hoses, decontaminate the car and dry it.
And the solution???
Replace the drainage system. We don't think the Range Rover ones are much good, so we suggest making one from scratch out of higher quality hose and connectors.
