I suppose any vehicle that is folding will have difficulties of some sort;
whether they be leaks or something more... ahem... structurally dramatic.

Glad to hear it! I've never owned a del Sol so it's good to hear from folks
that have extended experience with them. It is my understanding that there
was a TSB that addressed the leaking problem. Might your del Sol have
gotten "the fix"?

Best regards,

Not sure if I had the leaks fixed or not. I did complain to the dealer once
when i was living in Jersey that there were some rattling noises in the roof
and they did something with it.

I think it also depends on the driver. IF you drive topless and whip the
car hard around the corners, then I suppose you will get some rattle and
flexes
as the car gets older.

One thing that I do faithfully every 3 months is that I wipe clean the roof
edges, the rubber around it and
follow up with a layer of silicone oil to protect it from the elements. as
well as putting greases
in the 2 aluminum rod that links the roof to the frame.

The one regrettable thing about MY DelSol was that I wish I had bought the
VTec instead of SI. 125 Hp
seems tame after a while.
