Leaking Sky Lounge Roof?
Hi,
Has anyone came across a leaking sky lounge roof before? Purchased a 19 plate X5 a few weeks ago from a BMW dealership, had a few issues shall we say, then discovered this earlier when driving it in the torrential rain. I've double checked the roof and it's shut properly etc. Video: https://streamable.com/8nnx4q Thanks |

Do a search on the forum for it and you will find some nice details and helpful instructions. If you have a warranty, you could simply go complain to your dealer and let them sort it out |

Front driver side roof vent is it? In the video it shows it :-)
Entire area around it is soaking wet. Quote:

I've just got my 22 plate back from the dealership, it's the 3rd time it's been in for a sunroof leak, from the microphone. This time they've changed every seal possible in the sunroof, under warranty. Let's hope it's 3rd time lucky.
Ask your dealership to check that the drain tubes aren't blocked, drivers and passenger sides. |

4 weeks after I picked up my brand new ‘21 it got a leak that appeared at the microphone area above the driver’s head. It happened when it was only a misty rain. Took it to the dealer and they found that the moonroof’s cassette had a fine crack in it. None were available in the country at the time during Covid so it sat in the shop for 40 days waiting for a shipment to come from Germany. It was a manufacturer’s defect and no problem after that. It was a known issue.
