Open your sunroof and look for the drain holes in both front corners. Those tubes run through the door pillars and drain through to the rocker panels. You may be tempted to run a coat hanger down the tubes or blast them with compressed air. Don't! You might poke the wire right through the tubing or disconnect it from the drain hole. Then you'd have to remove the entire headliner to reconnect it-a big job. Instead, use a shop vacuum and small-diameter vinyl tubing to suck out the clog.

If that doesn't do the trick, try running a very small flexible "Plumbing" snake down the tube to break up the clog. (Actually, it's a speedometer cable found at any auto parts store for about $8.)

If cleaning the tubes doesn't work, don't try to disassemble the mechanism or bend the sheet metal to get a better fit. That's a job for a top-notch body shop. If the car isn't worth the cost of the repair, we rescind our earlier warning. Go for the silicone and live without the wind in your hair.

Which companies specialize in roof leak repair?

Roof leak repair begins with roof leak detection. If the rafters and underside of your roof deck is exposed, you will have an easier time of it. That said, however, water leaks have a way of being incredibly deceptive. The spot where you see water and stains may be some distance from the actual roof damage. A professional roofer knows the tricks that water can play, so don't risk climbing onto your roof and searching for the source yourself. There are many companies that specialize in roof leak repair and that provides fast, reliable leak detection and roof leak repair service.
