Hey guys i hopped into my car today and when i started to drive off i noticed that my soft top was leaking... on both sides! what should i do about this? can i take it to a dealer and get it fixed without being charged? help me out please! thanks!

 

Do you have a extended warranty? If not, no.

 

i got my car used... i am not sure if it has the warranty... if not... oh well i guess i have to get a HARDTOP... damn! haha

 

Hey,

I just i would recommend patching it if you can still see out the back window. If not then try finding a good deal either through Honda Care USA or buy another softop but with the glass window.


I just got a great deal from GAHH.com they offer aftermarket tops including glass window conversions.

hardtops are really expensive and to my understanding are time consuming to put on and off. But then again never owned one.

Aslo Sorenson shop in pasadena i hear is also very good in price. they quoted me 1350 with install and soft top with glass

 

If you bought it used from HONDA, your car should be certified. All they need to do is replace the molding with new ones. After time the moldings move, shift, and crack, etc. Parts is cheap but labor is 1.5-hours. Thats 80X1.5 or 2 and parts. 300.00 to fix.

My 02' leaked today...after 48,000 plus miles...drivers side rubber on the top...right where it "splits" when you open the top...total cost of repair 42.00.

I love this damn car!

 

Top down, drive fast: no problem.

 

 

I think one of the most common fixes for a leaky roof is having the strikers tightened

 

Doesn't the Shin-Etsu grease help out as well? I read somewhere it lubes up the seals so that the water just glides off.

I could be wrong.
