Default Leak on TT Roadster

Hello all. I have a small leak when it rains right at the point where the small window at the front of the door closes against the A pillar. Has anyone had this before and do you know how to stop it? I was thinking of using some Firestone rubber roofing material to close the seal tighter. That stuff has worked wonders for me on my truck. Thanks.

Default My roadster's top only leaks a little on the car wash...

When taking the high pressure cycle, I do get a little water on the passenger side, none on the driver side.

This makes me believe that this leak could be fixed some how, but I'm clueless as far as what to try...

The top structure looks flawless, and do are the seals. I get no airflow in while driving...

Are all these leaks progressive? Is there a best practice to prevent this from happing (or slow it down for that matter) ?

Be safe on the snow!

Default I took mine back to the dealer 3 times before they fixed it ....

First the replaced all the rubber. I'm not sure what the hell they did the second time and then the 3rd time they adjusted the tilt of the window. It worked.

The service manager admitted that they had overlooked the tilt fix. He said they found out that the windows had adjustment that would increase or decrease the tilt or lean into the car.

Whatever, it worked.
