'99 Disco SII
73K Miles
(three amigos in full effect)

So today was the first heavy rain we've had since I bought my Disco (one month and 2 days ago). I hopped in to discover a beautiful waterfall in my backseat. If you are standing at the rear of the truck looking at the sunroof, the water is coming in from the right side. It's coming in through the headliner, (covering the track?) and this was not a simple drip drip. It was like a garden hose was running from my headliner into my rear seat.

I quickly opened the sunroof and peaked up (through the downpour) to see if there was debris in the track. I didn't notice anything, but then again it was pouring thus making my vision blurred. I closed the sunroof and it shut normally. No pops or odd sounds.

I looked through my favorite LR forum and found an old post about this. The advice given was to use pressured air to blow out the tracks and the drain holes. My question is: Do I need to take anything apart first or can I buy a bottle of pressured air (used for PC's and keyboards) and just start blowing?

Thanks in advance.

One or both of your drain tubes are either plugged or pulled loose. I would suggest you take it to a local Rover shop and have them do a quick check and repair.
