    I have a Leer 100R with factory Thule rails. My cap is leaking thru one of the mounting holes for the rails. Anybody else have this issue? Fixes?

    Silicone the bolts that mount the tracks. Two of mine leaked because they were bent to shit. Replaced them and siliconed. No issues

    Remove the bolt, silicone the hole then replace the bolt & that should seal it? Thanks.

    The bolt or bolts may just be loose, check them. In any event silicon caulk should resolve the leak.
