Hi Guys...

I know this topic was already discussed..but, I'm new, so I hope you don't mind if I bring it up again.

I purchased my '03 S2000 in March and I was way happy with it until I washed it and realized it leaked. I went to the Honda dealer and they told me that all convertibles leak. I beg to differ, having owned a Boxter and a BMW convertible in the past and neither car leaked. Then they said "well, this isn't a Porsche,you know, Honda doesn't have a lot of practice with convertibles!!!". I couldn't believe what I heard!! So, anyway, they changed all the weather stripping and adjusted the windows. It's better, but still leaks a bit. Also, the top doesn't go all the way down, I have to manually push it the last few inches. The dealer can't help me with that either.

Other than changing dealers (which I am doing), does anyone have any suggestions? I really love this car!!

Thanks!!!!
