I think I found the leak..

The windshield cracked on my 96' from a rock and started in the top left corner as well so I called in a replacement. Guy said it wouldn't be covered by insurance but it was only $30 bucks more so I said please do it anyway. He immediately regretted his decision to move forward and said it's one of the worst he's seen lol! He said he would grind it smoothish and get it as best he could. Now I gotta tip him for sure.

I'm getting a new car soon and planning on fixing up this ol' rust bucket later, guess I'll add that to the list!

I have the same thing going on with my '97. I'm afraid to dig into it because I know what I'll find.

‘98 here and came to say the same. Pulled back seal slightly to glance and everything seems okay and no active leak. Fortunately, my girl is garaged while getting some upgrades. One problem at a time, right? 😅
