Thanks N4S - turns out it is just a "cold" problem.

Phew - I hate going to dealers - they are always so condescending!

Its only ever done this to me in the cold, Its something to do with the tension in the cold or something (I used to love physics, but long time since i did it, otherwise i could prolly explain it!)

Thanks for all the advice.....now I've got to decide which Honda to take it to. Maidstone or Ashford. Hmmmmmm, do you think they will charge me to look at it? Don't know if the roof comes under the warrenty or not?

Cheers

Good luck - they will not charge you as all work would be carried out under warranty.

I too had pervious problems with my roof, the rubber seals were replaced as I had a shower whenever I used to get into the car after it had rained !!!
