Hey everyone,
I am pretty new here but I have been using this forum to fix other issues with my 05 Titan SE. My first leak was in fact the AC drain fix -> fixed it myself because of the postings here but I was still getting wet carpet on both the driver and passenger side now.
After the AC fix, I started to notice a river of water on the carpet during a rainstorm and traced it all the way to the back window (I have the slider). So thinking it was this I decided to take it to the dealer to confirm and within minutes they said it was the window seal and it needed to be replaced. That's fine and dandy but I don't want to replace the whole window because of a possible "bad seal" for a whopping 1k plus.. So I took it to a window shop and the guy applied sealant all around the window itself (to which he said if this doesn't fix it, it can't be the window seal). I got this idea from another thread on here so I gave it a shot before deciding to dump that much money.. but still to no avail I had water dripping in around the back window.
Now after that I decided to keep researching the threads and saw someone posting about the third brake light and the rivets on each side of the cab.. Brake light was dry and I sealed the rivets on the outside and inside the cab as well but again.. this did not stop the leak..
I watched a youtube video of a Titan owner who noticed cracked in his paint on the roof where those rivets are and sealed it there and I am hoping I have the same issue because now the top of my cab is full of grey and clear sealant.. but if this doesn't fix it does anyone have any suggestions? I love my Titan cept for the fact she has had multiple leaking issues since I bought her.. I am gonna check tomorrow to see if the silicone fixed it temporarily but I am out of ideas on how the water is getting in. Any ideas? I will try and post pictures tomorrow. Thanks!
