Have been fighting sunroof leak issue for a while now and found the issue but not sure what the "fix" is. Maybe someone here has experience.
2015 Crew cab Laramie.
Had leaks at the front and rear areas of sunroof (Most heavy in the front, just stains in back)
All the drains are clean and clear, no broken hoses etc.
It is not the third brake light as many have pointed to as issue.
Leak At front - down A pillars and across the front edge of headliner.
I found the fix for this. Via search found a Youtube video that showed leak point where the spring for the front wind defector goes thru the sunroof frame. This hole allows water to leak through sunroof aluminum frame. Little black RTV and I sealed that up.
This solved the issue in front. See picture)
All was good for a while and thought I had solved the the leak.
Recent heavy rains and saw some staining at back of headliner (Front is good).
Leak at rear - staining around midpoint of headliner near the small speakers.
Dropped the headliner so I could see where the issue was. Water is dripping at rear area of sunroof where the motor cable housing attaches to the plastic end cap. Pictures attached. Not sure how this water crosses over from the drain channel to the section that has the drive.
Anyone have ideas
Thanks for the advise.
