Leak

[Chris Edgar]

I had the leaking problem on the Tourer, both bottom corners & quite bad..

Fixed it by injecting, with a syringe, silicone GREASE (not sealant) under the outer edge of the rubber down both sides & along the bottom.
It was amazing how much crud this displaced out of the rubber.
Since then, about 2 months, it's been fine.

Less messy than Roof & Gutter.

Did you lift the rubber with a knife and apply the grease

There are plenty of small windscreen replacement companys that wont charge as much as Autoglass

Andy,

I got it from Amazon, having been given advice to use silicone grease on the forum here

I used a tube of silicone grease, not aerosol. Squirted the grease from the tube into a syringe, lifted the rubber using an old rather rounded off screwdriver & moved along with the syringe following.
Didn't need a lot.
Of course some gets onto your windscreen, which you will need to clean off thoroughly

I got new screen rubbers all round, there are still leaks though I think I'll try the grease solution.
