    I haven't had that problem, so I might not be of much help. My guess is the rubber seals are going bad :(

    If it’s where the roof joins the windscreen, you can tighten the catches to compress the seal. What condition are the seals in ? You may need to lubricate them.

    As said, lubricate the seals so they are supple. Also make sure they are clean. Any small bit of dirt can let water run in. One day water may come in. After dropping the windows and raising again, it may be alright.

    I have the same problem, do I need to change the rubber seal ?

    Did you clean the seals and tighten the catches like we told you last year @Dickens ?
