General 04 ulysse letting in water

[miszterjones]

Hi all.

I have an 04 Ulysse (yep - a black DU04 from Leicester !) . Whenever it rains - the alarm goes off, and water accumilates in the moulding above the mirror (which causes the alarm to go off i guess). it seems to be full of water - go round a corner and it pours out !

I have seen threads about this - talking about grommets on the roof - but no idea what this means ??

Can anyone advise ?? Cheers Miszterjones

BTW - have no sunroofs (ves?) BUT my rear wash wipe doesn't work - although the motor operates.

Hi a grommet is a pieces of rubber which fits in to the hole in you roof where there would have been an Ariel, or you could use black silicon to fill the hole up.
Your rear wash pipe could have come disconnected, which i believe is in one of the rear panels in the boot.

Hi if you look on the roof you will find two black plugs (filling two holes were extra ariels were fitted) These were not sealed in well so water will get in and drip inside by the handles and mirror point. Just pop them out clean off the old glue and reseal (black gutter seal worked for me). The wash wipe rear is listed in recent posts under "central locking faulty" posted by walderwambat. Hope this helps
