Subject:      Windshield Leaks
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

New Windshield, new no-trim seal, shop install, and it leaks in the
corners everytiime it rains.

I have been assured it is a proper installation, "roped" into place,
surfaces for the new seal thoroughly cleaned, no "sealer" used as it was
not necessary. So if it is a proper installation, what is causing the
leaking at "both" corners. Everytime it rains water, drips down on the
carpet just under the dash. Doesn't just pour in, but does wet the carpet.

I'm a bit exasparated with this. It is evident that the shop feels that
they have done it right and there really isn't any way to actually
improve on the mechanics ot the installation. So I think I am going to
have to come up with the way to get that accomplished and impart it to
them. They are willing enough to take it on.

Any Bentley procedures calling for anything special that I should know
about??

Any suggestions on how to deal with this would be appreciated.

Thanks,
