Removable Roof Panel
Maintenance
Dust is the main cause of creaks or
other sounds coming from the roof.
Regularly clean the roof panel and
body seals with glass cleaner and a
soft cloth.
Eveiy three to six months,
depending on how often the roof is
removed, rub a thin film of Shin-Etsu
Silicone grease (available from your
Acura dealer, P/N 08798-9013) onto
the seals wherever they touch the
roof panel or each other.
To reduce the possibility of leaks:
Use the door pull to open and
close the door. Do not push or pull
on the door glass.
Do not lean or sit on an open door.
The roof panel seals are designed
to promote the flow of water off
the roof. Spraying high pressure
water directly on the seals can
distort them, causing a leak. Use
only a low pressure water stream
when using a hose, and avoid car
washes that use only high
pressure water spray for cleaning.
Avoid getting water in the roof
holder. This can damage the
switch that senses the roof is
stored, causing the instrument
panel light to stay on.
