Hi All,
I'm new here so I apologies if this has already been asked.
I have 2016 Kuga (Titanium X Sport). I started noticing a damp smell building a few weeks ago, and over the last week during the heavy rain I found I have a leak in the roof (with a wet passenger seat and a swimming pool). I've seen a lot on Google suggesting this isn't a rare thing and the fault can be duff seals on the roof rail screws. I have roof rails factory fitted. I've seen clips on removing the rails and applying sealant to the hole, the screws and washers, but I can't get the rails off to start with. The front cover\cap is a hard plastic that doesn't want to move. Has any body else managed to remove it \ fix it or needed to go into a garage?
I'm not shy about fixing it (mainly because I can't afford garage costs to strip the interior) but worry i'm going to snap something and cost more.
Thanks
