Miramar 35.2 Passenger Window Leaking into the Window Track

Hi folks,

I have Hehr frameless windows in the cockpit area and the passenger side window has a leak. The water gathers in the track. I have cleaned out the weeping holes I can find, but can't seem to find the weeping holes for the fixed, outside window. Anyone has any experience with this? Can anyone point me in the right direction to find those weeping holes? Many thanks in advance.

You may need to check/clean those weep holes more than once as well as check the window track. We had a similar problem with a kitchen window on our Axis. It turns out there was a small piece of (presumably) trimmed off rubber gasket caught in the track. The water would back up and eventually flood the track until we discovered the little piece (and it was small) stuck in the weep hole after multiple attempts at finding the problem.

Also, check the caulking on the outside of the window. May have a minuscule leak that is allowing the water in in the first place. Yes, had that happen too on our driver side window.

Luckily both very easy fixes once you actually ID the real source of the problem.

Thanks for this. Still looking for the culprit... but I have hope
