Searched but did not find anything. Has anybody suffered this leak? Any idea on what it could be or how to fix it?

Thanks in advance!

Car was in wreck they pulled glass off to repaint rear quarter panel maybe

 

Possible, but the car has never been in a wreck.

 

That you know of. Maybe clogged sunroof drain tube?

 

If they had to repaint near the upper part any real shop would pull the glass btw dealer does not have to disclose damage on new cars due to shipping under certain price depending on state and its based on like 9 dollars an hour for the repair

 

Yeah, that I wouldn't be able tell, maybe it was replaced, but it looks exactly the same in terms of condition as the other side (doesn't look newer). I would have to disassemble from the inside to try to see where the water is coming from.

Thanks

 

Regardless of how or when it happened, that's the issue. The right way to fix it is to remove the glass and reapply the black sealant around the window.

 

Take to a glass shop to remove and reinstall

 

If it's under warranty have them fix it btw a shop will charge 2-300 per window

 

This is my advice to do as well. Best of luck and keep us updated with what the issue was and how you resolved it.

 

i think there is a tsb related to the window not sitting properly

 

I believe its coming from the rain rail on the roof.

I took apart the whole interior of the car and the glass is perfectly sealed, I can see water dripping after I hosed it with water and it looks like it comes from the roof

 

oh could be the rear sun roof drain then? theres 2 in the front and 2 in the rear. idk where the rear one route through

 

I saw what I believe are drain tubes there, it would suck if that was it, since where the leak appears to be it is impossible to reach..

Thanks for the suggestion, will check on the FSM how to reach those drain tubes.

 

this is why i dont like sunroofs. unfortunately majority if not all g37 coupes have it lol or so it seems. if i could get one without i wouldve. i dont even use it
