I keep getting water dripping on me through sun roof (the type that tilts up at the back). I've removed it and cleaned rubber seal and glass but still same problem. Can't seem to see a drain pipe like my Nissan had on this ? Does it have one? Any ideas how to cure this?
Thanks

If it is like a mid 90's fiesta design, there is a flat metal or plastic plate which is held on by screws through holes in the glass and connects to the tilt mechanism. These screws and the plate sometimes have washers which disintegrate with time...Maybe worth checking all screws holding glass are tight (but not too tight otherwise you may shatter glass)...Drain pipes are often tiny holes in the corner of the car roof where it meets sunroof. However if these are blocked should be water sloshing around the tiny lip between sunroof and the car body...
Also some rubber seals often have tiny hairs/bristles around them - on my old 405 , when these fell off with age, sunroof leaked making roof lining soggy rather than drips into cabin....but be careful when cleaning rubber seals you do not rub off all the bristles....
