Lainie Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Hi, I have a small intermittent leak coming from the very right hand corner of the soft top where it meets the windscreen. I have taken it to a garage and they "think" it requires a new door seal (which does join up to where the leak seems to be coming from) but I'm concerned I'm going to have this done and it isn't going to solve the issue. Has anyone experienced anything like this? Thanks, Lainie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Are you sure it's not just blocked drains? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lainie Posted March 1, 2016 Author Share Posted March 1, 2016 Have tried to clean the drains. As it is an intermittent leak I don't know if that has solved the issue yet or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Haha at least you will know if it's still leaking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lainie Posted March 3, 2016 Author Share Posted March 3, 2016 True but hopefully soon I can have the roof down and all will be good in the world 🌞😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 That would be nice. March is looking a bit rubbish so far let's hope it improves. A nice spell of sun/double figures would be welcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I'm sure I always feel the same around this time of year. Once Christmas is over I'm fed up with the dark and cold! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lainie Posted March 7, 2016 Author Share Posted March 7, 2016 Mine starts when the clocks change in October and doesn't improve until they change again in March so you are doing better than me 😯 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 When's usually the first time you get the roof down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lainie Posted March 10, 2016 Author Share Posted March 10, 2016 Oh it's hard to say just depends on the weather I would say you are lucky if it's before May but you never know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daycartes Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Hi Lainie, My wife had a leak in her boot in her A3 Cab. Took it to our local Audi Dealer and they searched for the leak. It took them 2 weeks to find and clear it as they were very thorough and didn't want to return it until they were sure. Cost 2 hours labour. Fantastic service and it hasn't leaked since. One of the rear roof seals was leaking. Car was not under guarantee at the time. Although many people moan about the dealers I have found that if you form a relationship with them that they are very good. In the 12 years that I have been running Audis I have had peace of mind when leaving the premises and that has meant a great deal to me.

Nice to hear of a good bit of customer service from a main dealer. As you say, all to often you hear about people moaning but I think people who have good experiences are sadly less likely to shout about it than those who have bad ones.

Lainie Posted March 12, 2016 Author Share Posted March 12, 2016 Thanks for that daycartes that's good to know. Think I will have to go along this route as with the rain we had last week it appears it is still leaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
