I've ordered new clip from bmw with the new washers etc on them. I'll be putting them on over the weekend. Do you mean just dabbing some grease over the holes in the door where the clips go?

Is it silicone grease you are referring to?

Had this problem too with wet passenger floor, for me it was the moisture cover that was resembled faulty after repair of a broken window. I could use the old sealing when correcting it.

Hey there, I see that the post is quite long time ago posted, but I hope for some help, I'm new at this.
I own a bmw e92 lci version (2011.), I bought it two years ago, and few months ago, i saw water started to leak at the passanger footwell. That water caused me a huge electrical problem as well cause it was leaking over the fusebox and junction box as well. After visiting three mechanics, nobody can't find where from the water is leaking. I've spent a huge amount of money still for nothing, every different mechanic had other opinion, nobody solve the problem. Now I decided to take things by myself, I know quite a lot about cars and parts and everything, following these instructions and solutions on this post, unfortunately I still didn't managed a problem. So firts of all, I thouht that the drains of the sunroof were blocked, i cleaned them, no changes, I ve tried with that thin rub under the hood, it' s been regulary setted, i've even aded some silicon underneeth it, so that option didn't helped me as well. Cause I saw the water is leaking just above the fuse box, i'm going to take the dashboard out, and see where directley water is leaking from. Previous owner had replaced the windsheild as well, what's your thoughts, can the windsheild be the problem, I am frustrated already, I live without my car for two months already, does anybody have any ideas what could cause this mess before I start with removing the dashboard, should I check something else maybe? Realy every tip would help me a lot. Thank you for your time! |

I would have a look at this before you go about removing the dash. |

I had my windshield replaced a while back and this exact thing has happened to me twice. After the first time I thought I had it solved, but it just happened to me last night while on vacation with the family at the beach. I’ll have to take apart the plastic cover under the windshield wipers when I get home next weekend, but I’m curious to see if this is the issue. |

Hi destroy26,
Yes the new seal fixed the leak. The windscreen fitter put it in for me when he changed the windscreen. You can easily do it yourself. The seal was pretty cheap to buy too from what I remember. It's been around three years now with no leaks! |

I pulled back part of the plastic cover and I’m not seeing a rubber seal on the bottom edge of the windshield. Before I go and remove the wiper blades and the entire plastic cover, is it apparent that I’m missing the rubber seal? My guess is that it should be on the bottom edge of the windshield, below the plastic cover. Thanks |

From memory it's under the plastic shield so is not visible in your photo. It sits directly on the bottom edge of the windscreen glass.
It's item 5 in Real OEM in the exterior trim section. It sits underneath number 16 plastic cover. Last edited by Silver Streek; 07-11-2024 at 01:15 PM.. |
