Ok guys, im sick and tired of having puddles in my car everytime it downpours or i wash my car. Now i know theres plenty of garbage information on Honda tech but not a real solution in one thread. If we can get some good information in this thread maybe we can sticky this and figure out all the little nooks and crannies where water comes from, and why it does not run down like it should.

Here i go.

(1)
Im sure alot of you guys have Water on the floor boards. Honda had a TSB out a while back talking about the seam sealer being insufficiently applied. Its a pain in the the ass as far as i can figure out but. Any input on this?

(2)
Under the A pillar moldings up top where the body panels come together i get water leaking thorugh there. Also in the back where the body panels come together it leaks. (roof to pillar)

I allready tried to re ream seal underneath the rain gutters, didnt help.

(3)
My sunroof tray is also leaking due to small rust holes. So if your headliner around the sunroof leaks, check that out as well.

(4) Check the sunroof drains and see if they leak around where they connect. Or if they may have popped out completely. Also check if they are clogged.

(5) my hood cowl seal is bad and water runs inside the hook cowl which it is supposed too but the seal is bad on the corner where the blower hole is so water runs in there.

Anyone else who has these issues please let us all know maybe we can fix this crap together or find a bodyshop thats familiar with the way hondas are supposed to drain water to the ground.

 

i thought hondas were watertight,mines pretty good.my old musclecars all leaked like there was no tomorrow...

 

I used black silicone caulking around the rear tailights in my EF hatch and it stopped like 90% of the leaking I got in the rear...now to figure out where the other 10% is coming from lol.

 

Ok i just figured out that the Leaks from the roof seams come from under the Rain gutters. Pull them off and at the ends mine are rust cracked open. Going to have to Sand all that shit out, and reseal it. YAY!!!! *sarcasm*

 

my accrod leaks from the roof up front by the rear view mirror

 

I stopped that on my Accord by removing outside trim and sealing around the windshield with clear silicone for windows/doors=non acid base.-Bob

 

thanks bob i gota try that i did it before and it aint really wor k cuz i just did the top

 

every1 i kno with a da teggy the hatch leaks

 

There was a writeup about the hatch leak on the he DAs, ill see if i can find it.

 

+1 mine does that, also with da's there is the infamous passenger floor leak, i just covered the opening under the cowl thats for the a/c and it fixed it
