Water pouring out of interior light & down passenger doo
2009 XSD Utility developed a water leak. Water pours out of the interior light at the front of the cab and down the passenger door when cornering. Where is the most likely source? Not happy as no doubt Lanrover are not interested once out of warranty

I think I would be looking at roof to windscreen seal, Alpine light seals or maybe a sunroof? 1999 Defender TD5 110

Possibly the roof to windscreen frame seal. An engine to TDi for!

Could it be condensation build up?

Mine used to suffer badly until I removed the headliner and lined all the roof. Now only the sunroof suffers, but I plan to make a screen for that to reduce/eliminate it.

You could have a look at this link..........http://www.scribd.com/doc/17833628/water-ingress-manual


Or get step ladder and have a look at the roof joints, mine weren't in a bad state but I went over them with a marine sealant and that stopped the leaks. Don't make old people mad.
We don't like being old in the first place,
so it doesn't take much to Censored us off.

Roof to windscreen joint by the gutter. I've just fixed my water leak by sealing there today
