It leaks even during rain or only when washing it with a high pressure sprayer?

SiggyBaby nice car .It only leaks when it is raining. I have never aplied direct pressure to the weather stripping, I didn't want to do that because the owners manual said not to.

Thanks. If it's leaking when in rain then you must have a decent sized gap around the weather stripping. None of mine have ever leaked in rain and this current Z of mine never did either when I drove it everyday. Pressure from a car wash did cause it to leak some but not much.

SiggyBaby, thanks for all the help, the guy at the dealership says that I was missing a little on the edge were it was leaking from. He said it was tiny, that was why it only leaked when I was moving, because the water would accumulate in the area and leak in. I also would like to know where you bought your Zaino Products, I HAVE TO HAVE THEM !!!!!!!! How do you like the loudmouth?

Contact Sal Zaino at his email zainobros@zainobros.com and ask for information on a distributor in your area. Or you could order them directly from Sal.

Thanks for allyou help SiggyBaby. I was going to get my stripping replaced today but the gy doin it said it was almost brand new. I said, well it isnt holding out the water too well! He answered back that it was off on the left side by 2mm, tat lef a 2mm wide gap, and let water leak in. On the right side there was a 1mm gap etc. Well long story short, it was fine, the guy who said I was missing a piece was an idiot, and it works fine now. With all this Florda rain, sure enough, I tested iton the way back home.
