2000 jeep cherokee sunroof seal Videos

thank you i will check out your band

Your directions were spot on! I was able to complete the job in about 15 minutes. Thanks for taking the time to share your expertise.

trying to upload photos of the leaking sunroof now. it's not longer stopped from draining from the bottom but somewhere between the sunroof tray where the water is collecting on drivers side as it goes down side of windshield, if I press that plastic piece that has like a square cut out of it (the square isn't pulled out but you can see it's a separate piece) water comes leaking out. today it was then also in the fabric running above drivers door window. I felt into sunroof drain hole but couldn't feel any debris. it must need to be air blown or snaked out? against the footwell drain is totally clear, i.e., the leak is collecting and over flooding along the left side of windshield and over drivers side door. any suggestions?

Great detail for the Sun Roof Fix about leaks ... let me embellish with these thoughts. We have a 2007 Jeep Commander with NO SUNROOF and yet on the 'passenger's side grab handle fastener cover' collects and drips rain or wash water down the inside windshield pillar plus drips come from the passenger side kick panel and wets the rug. Nothing on the driver's side. That's dry. It leaks sitting in the drive way. The water occurs above the dash so it's not the air inlet between the windscreen and the hood, by the wipers. I'm thinking that the windshield leaks in the upper right hand side. It's here where water finds it's way in. If not the glass than the screws that hold the factory roof rack to the sheet metal roof panel might leak. Since I'm a sail boater, serious consideration is to do the following. 1~Close up the body using the servo-motors for as many body ventilation air inlets as possible. 2~Pressurize the body by opening the backseat window enough for the hose of my shop vacuum to be inserted and seal up the remaining window opening with corrugated paper and tape. 3~Push the Exhaust from a shop vacuum into the body and wait about 1/2 an hour to assure all possible pressure. 4~Standing on a ladder squirt 'Leak Seek' onto the top and sides of the windshield where the glass is set in a black sealer surround and wait for the bubbles showing the leak. Identify and dry the areas. 5~Once the leak is identified... 6~Reverse the shop vacuum hose and try to pull a negative pressure inside the Commander's body. 7~West Marine sells 3-M 5200 slow set in black. This product flows for about a hour before setting up. So put a bead around the windscreen and see if the 3-M 5200 slow set will be drawn into the leak over a very long time. An hour or so. That's the plan. Any thoughts? Even without a Sun Roof does the 'A' pillar supporting the windscreen have any drain tubes or pockets that need to be cleaned out to channel water to under the body? Maybe the drain tubes for a Sun Roof are there with or with out an actual Sun Roof? [why design and manufacture two different 'A' pillars?] SIDE BAR: We made in ground swimming pools where the hole is lined with sand and a vinyl liner is pulled tightly down to conform to the sand by using four or five shop vacs running for 12 hours. Works great!

Great video, This explains a lot about what I am seeing in my 2007 Commander. I am going to try it and I will let you know what happens.

A tip if you unclog the bottom and the top and still no flow: I used a foot pump from an exercise ball; it was too hard to get to the opening at the top, so I just poured some water into the roof drain, then firmly attached the tapered hose of the ball pump to the bottom of the drain hose. One good stomp of my foot on the pump sent air bubbles out through the top and then water and debris just rushed out when I removed the pump from the bottom

I had this exact same problem with my 04 MC! After I resolved it I discovered another leak coming from the top corner of the driver door. Do I need to replace the molding on the inside of the jamb or both jamb and door rubber gaskets? Any help would be awesome.

sunroof repairs are one of the worst things to have to do on a car. I know land rovers are pretty difficult to work on in general but sunroof repairs in any car are a royal pain to have to deal with

did you figure this out? I'm having the same problem. Mechanic told me I could buy a new assembly, but I think there must be a more reasonable solution. Both sides are out, the top mount light is working.
