Weatherstripping Waves?
O K I searched, the top weather stripping along the windsheild where the roof meets the glass has gotten all wavy like it has expanded or something. 92 pearl was fine last fall, been under cover on and off for the winter, been driven once a month, now this pops up, whats up with that, anyone else sharing this aggravation, its not very attractive..............G

Re: Weatherstripping Waves?
Mine did that too last winter (along the roof line). It had me worried, but eventually it smoothed itself out on it's own.

Re: Weatherstripping Waves?
Same thing happened to me last week when the snow melted. The rubber strip along the top of the rear window has gone all bumpy and wavy. Both my 92's have been affected, but the 94 is OK. I really hope it does sort itself out.

Re: Weatherstripping Waves?
WOW! Thanks guys, I went and looked later today and it seems somewhat better, I also theorized that it might be from wax overrun as I waxed the crap outa the roof before winter, at least I'm not all alone on this, thanks again...............G

Yarp, mine too... after spraying it off with hot water in the shop. Returned to normal on its own.... weird.

Re: Weatherstripping Waves?
I have experienced this on several of mine as well. Hot water does do this sometimes, or weather does it too. Mine have usually returned to normal.

Re: Weatherstripping Waves?
I noticed this yesterday on my silver, for the first time. We've been having unusually cold weather and icy precip. Strange.
On a related note, does anybody have a recommendation for a product to restore/protect this weatherstripping? dcb |

Re: Weatherstripping Waves?
My car makes wavy weatherstrips between the fixed side windows and the roof.
Do you guys have this problem?
