i thought I bought a unicorn until I saw this...

No politics on TW bro, people might cry and file an Internet Butt Hurt Report w/ admins.

 

there fixed it lol

 

I like it because I still know who you're talking about haha

 

Is there a suggestion on what to clean and lube in the sunroof? Just wipe and spray with white silicone? Also where do you clean out the drain tubes

 

Shin Etsu brand silicone grease is what I used to use at he dealer. Use on all the rubber areas at the SR seal. Clean all the grit from the painted flange the seal touches. The grease works great on new installs and maintenance for window run channels too. It's even available on Amazon now. Drain tubes, I used a vacuum if there were a lot of leaves and crap in the drain pan, but if nothing is visibly clogging it, a small burst of air from a rubber tipped blow gun should keep it clear. Watch the air pressure (we had 165 PSI line pressure) as it can disconnect a drain line if too much air is introduced while there is an obstruction. Unlikely though as stuff should pass through the end. Test it with some water and make sure there's drainage out the bottom and not into the cabin.

 

Hmmm have you visited the southeast lately by chance?

 

Same exact thing happened to me. Dealer replaced the whole bed light fixture for free and hasn't leaked since. They said several tacos came in for the same issue, no idea why there's no recal.

 

Mine was fixed couple weeks back. Took them like 3-4 hours to complete the job cuz they have to take apart the headliner etc.

No more leaking though.

 

note to self: keep a squeeze tube of clear fast dry silicone in the truck for winter just in case....

 

Ehh, seal the 3rd brake light

 

i think after reading this i'm going to contact my dealer Before rain starts and have them make sure it's tits....or take it through a car wash and see what happens..i sure want to have this addressed before rain comes. Damn glad i don't have a sunroof at least. Thanks for posting this info.....the heads up on possible issues is greatly appreciated!!

 

Thanks for the recommendation---Read the reviews and looks like it keep the weatherseals in good shape also. Just picked up a tube for both mine and the wife's car!

 

I wouldn't BS anyone about stuff I've had experience with. It's a good lube. Has a very dry kind of paste-like texture, but adheres well and allows for very, very smooth operation of parts that rely on a rubber seal to ride on or seal. I was surprised when I did a search that Amazon had this stuff now. I still have my 17 year old tube around!

For anyone curious, it's this stuff:
