leaky softtop

[texanindc]

water dripping from the passenger side pillar where the softtop meets the windshield. i recall a bulletin in the star magazine about a fix a few months ago. my dealer has no idea (scared to think how much he wants to charge to fix it). any ideas?

thanks.

Most likely a worn gasket. Should not be too expensive or difficult to fix. It seems like a common problem.

thanks! where do you take your car (looks like you're near dc)?

I am actually in Odenton. I take mine to MB in Annapolis. They treat me real good there since I bought three cars from them and referred numerous friends of mine. The sales guy there gave me a VIP card that gives me life time 15% off parts and 10% off labor. Can't beat that. Plus plenty of other perks - private viewing parties and free tickets to car shows.
