Leak from interior light console
Hi all - have just had a look on previous posts to see if this has been reported before, but I just got in my car (had been standing outside in very heavy rain for about 2 hrs). When I drove away I was getting a very regular dripping of water, coming from the interior light console (where the rear view mirror is etc.) In the plastic housing there is a small hole, and the water was running from that. I would say about 10ml+ came out, as it was collecting around the gear lever in small puddles.
Is this anything to do with the sunroof issue that I see has been raised by others? I also had a leak coming from the 'A' pillar on the driver's side, but not as bad - probably 7 or 8 drops on to the steering wheel. My worry is that this could be one of those tricky leaks that never gets properly resolved - in which case I want to know where I stand with changing the car. I've had it 6 wks now. It's an Oct 06 on a '56 plate.
Thanks in advance
SimonI want that one...

Do you have a sunroof??? If so, could be the old blocked drain tube problem.

Here's my experience on my previous D3. There have been other cases, seems to be the drain tubes that block up.
