Recently, with the arrival of the rainy season, many car owners have reported problems such as water leakage and abnormal noises from their car sunroofs, which not only affect the driving experience but may also cause damage to the vehicles. For this reason, we have specially compiled a "Self-Rescue Guide for Leaking and Abnormal Noises from Car Sunroofs" to help car owners quickly identify and solve hidden faults on the roof.

Step 1: Check the sunroof seal strip

The sealing strip is the first line of defense for waterproofing a sunroof. Car owners can first observe whether the sealing strip has aged, cracked or deformed. If so, new sealing strips should be replaced in time to ensure they fit closely to the edge of the skylight and prevent rainwater from seeping in.

Step 2: Clean the drainage trough

If the skylight drainage channel is blocked by debris, it will prevent rainwater from being discharged smoothly, which may lead to leakage. Car owners can use slender tools (such as iron wire) to gently unclog the drainage channel to ensure smooth drainage.

Step 3: Adjust the sunroof track

If the skylight track becomes loose or deformed, it may also cause abnormal noise or leakage. Car owners can try adjusting the fastening screws of the sunroof track or use professional sunroof track lubricant for lubrication to reduce friction and eliminate abnormal noises.

Through the above three-step inspection, most of the problems of sunroof leakage and abnormal noise can be properly solved. If the problem persists, it is recommended that the car owner contact a professional repair shop for inspection and repair in a timely manner.
