Yes, try a search. I believe its easily fixed but i havent tried yet. You need to put some silicon or something like that on the seal.

The solution was opening the roof, wiping down the edges, and adding some lubricant.
No problem.

James,
Do you know what they did or what they used for lubricant - a lithium or special white Japanese grease (Shitzing grease)? Let us know.

Thanks

rain-x is great, but for only a few rainy days, then you have to reapply.
