How to remove sun visor from landrover lr3

hi i'm not familar with your car but if you can wind the sunroof back so the sunroof is fully open look at all four corners where the sunroof sits into there should be at least 2 drain holes which can over time become clogged with debris, if you find them use some warm water and flexi pipe to clean the drain holes out. hope this helps

You don't way what type of vehicle you are driving. I will assume it has a sun or moon roof. Most of these have drain lines that run down inside the driver's side door pillar and exit through the floor pan onto the ground. Over time, these drain hoses dry out and shrink, often retracting into the drivers side kick panel. Then, all the rain water that drains from the sunroof will leak out onto the drivers side floor. If that is the case, you will need to remove the drivers side kick panel and repair or replace the drain line and reroute it through the exit hole in the floor pan.

Check all rubber seals for wear or breaks (especially the sun roof) and around any glass. That may be why the sun roof doesn't work anyway...water gets in and rusts mechanism. I would start up top first, then work down.

You have to remove screws from any overhead console,
remove sun visors,handles & such to pull down the headliner
to get at & hook up the drain hose that came off

James, I had the same problem with my XC90. First, open the sunroof, and pour a little bit of weater in the drain holes at the front of the sunroof opening. It should only take a few ml/oz to fill them up if they are clogged. Provided the drain is clogged, remove the handle on the pillar of the passengers side, (handle separating the windshield from the passengers door), Use a utility knife, or very small screwdriver to open up the plastic covers, which reveals the small bolts underneath. The handle will come off, anong with the pillar moulding, which will reveal the tubing from the sunroof drain. The end of the tubing fits into a hole in the metal pillar (sq hole I believe), and is made of a soft moulded rubber. This rubber (when removed from the hole in the pillar), has a "plus" shaped hole in it to allow the water to escape. This is where the colg will likely be. dirt, leaves, etc comes down this tube, and gets stuck in the small rubber pcs at the bottom. You can either clean this pc out, or what was suggested to me, was to cut a small pc off the end, to allow water to flow much easier. Just take a little off the end, not so much that it will not stay in place. After you have cleared the drain, and installed the tube back in place, test the drain from above agian, to ensure that this was the only clog. Water should run out on the ground within seconds of being poured into the drain holes at the front of the sunroof. (water should pour out at the bottom of the fender, ahead of the door hinges, and should not be visible in the vehicle)I would reccomend doing both sides, even if you do not see a problem with the drivers side. The entire process will only take you 20-40 minutes. An easy fix to a major problem. Worse than water on the floor, is that there are electronic complnents/sensors on the floor of the passengers side that can be affected by water. I have to repalce my YAW sensor, under the pass seat, because it has gotten wet, and now causes caution lights in the dash regarding stability control. Best of luck. Colin W

Most likely the sunroof drains are clogged. It happened to mine (and my friend who has the same car), the floormats and floors were soaked, especially behind the drivers side. Volvo wanted to charge me $550 to clear them out and dry out the floors. Instead I took it home, rolled down the windows, parked it in the sun and let it dry out. Then I found a mechanic who blew out the drains with compressed air for only $20. He had originally quoted me $50-100, but ended up doing it for less. He said the two back drains were clogged. You can try sticking a small flexible wire down the front two yourself, then pour water down to see if it drains properly out the bottom of the car. When I looked I didn't see the two back sunroof drains (they are smaller), but my mechanic said they were clogged with leaves, you might be able to clear these yourself too. I would have never guessed that it was the sunroof causing this, because you don't see the water leak around the sunroof, you only see the water backing up on the floor. It has to do with the way the sunroof drains drain down the side panels of your car. Don't take it to the dealership, it's a simple job and they will rip you off.

If you have a sun roof,the drain hose may be off. If so,remove the sun visor and pull down the head liner, to get to the hose and drain fitting on the sun roof opening

check the adjustment of your sunroof, i work at a dealer and i just had a 2006 equinox in with the same exact problem, if you look at where the glass attaches to the sunroof rails you will see 2 torx screws on each side, with the sunroof closed, loosen the screws a little bit, don't remove them, push the glass up untill its level with the roof and the seal around the glass looks even all the way around where it contacts the roof sheet metal, then tighten down the screws while holding the glass in place. if it continues to leak, remove the sun visors and the clips for the sun visors, i believe they are either philips scres or torx, there will be 2 screws on the visor itself, and 1 for the clip. then remove the front pillar trim panel, you will see a small cover in the upper panel, use a pick or a sharp thin tool to pry the cover off and remove the 7mm screw in there, pull the door weatherstrip off and pull the trim panel off, after you do that gently pull the headliner down in the front corner and peek up at the sunroof frame, make sure the drain ose is still connected, the procedure is the same for both left and right sides. this should definitely clear up your problem!

There are gasket replacement kits at local auto parts stores. It's time consuming but well worth it. Prior to starting, inspect the tracks with the moonroof open. There's a chance you have a burr or some other kind of obstruction in the track preventing the roof from properly closing/sealing. A 3 year old vehicle really shouldn't leak from a worn gasket but if the gasket were defective it's possible.
