I've got that cracking all along the front seam on my 22 yr old 90 and it doesn't leak water in (not from there anyway ) its coming in a few more places on the roof and getting into the side gutters, so when I have inclination I'm going to strip out the saggy headlining and seal it all from the inside as well as the outside, I'm hoping it will be easy to see where its coming in with no headlining. I'm suspecting the exterior ribs as when parked on a slope (pointing uphill) and the roof is dried off after rain, there is still water running down the windscreen outside when moving off downhill, so the only place it can be hiding is inside the ribs.
It's fine when I park it pointing downhill, so in the mean time I know what to do. DJ |

Good luck with that! Our series 111 has no headlining and I still cannot find out where the water gets in! It lies in the internal gutter till you hit a corner or a slope then makes itself known. 1982 88" 2.25 diesel

All sorted. Dealer took vehicle back, so what to buy next.

Elz - I have had the same thing on my roof although I use a full length roof rack and I assumed that as I tightened the rack up it pulled the rails up into straight (mine were all over the place).
I got mine repaired and just expect this sort of issue. I suspect that you might always be disappointed with a Defender until the new one comes out. You will always find something you hadn't spotted before. |

Estate agents call that "charm" Tell someone you love them today because life is short. But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing... |
