Your cowl drains are clogged up and water is pooling under the wiper cowl. When you steer the water sloshes from one side of that pan to the other. Post in thread 'Soaking wet cabin filter' Soaking wet cabin filter

What's the RH? Looks like eTorque stuff? Also, they just run a bead of what looks like clear silicone sealant along the window. Got a huge storm last night and no notable water intrusion so we'll see

Just dropped it off in the shop. For those curious, they are no longer replacing the entire window, just resealing it with silicone sealant per the tech.

Well nevermind. Answered my own question with patience. I dumped a bucket of water on the sharkfin and rear window about 10 mins ago and there's water entering by the passenger side top corner of the rear window...

About a week or two ago I pulled the floor mats to hose down and get all the dried salt off. I noticed the bottom of the front passenger mat as some water on it. I felt the carpet under the mat and it's wet. Not soaked but definitely damp. Checked with recent passengers and no one spilled...

Seems to be an overall better design. I assume the weight reduction is thinner panels? Seems the weight support on top of the panels is unchanged? But yeah, I really liked the old one, disappointed it fell apart but very satisfied with RealTruck warranty service

Just replaced the tonneau cover this afternoon. Initially I thought I'd just swap the cover/panels out but the design is slightly different: the cover retention system near the bulkhead is different (and easier than the old design to install), rail clamps are different, even the drain tubes are...

shipped with tracking already, that was incredibly painless. Despite my initial frustration with the product breakdown after 4.5 years that is some top notch customer service!

For some reason I thought it was only a 3 year warranty but apparently it's 5 and just got confirmation Bak is sending me a replacement cover! Sweet! Thanks mate! I went through the Real Truck's page here and chose "Submit Warranty Claim" button then "Email Bak Industries." They followed up...

Bought mine in July 2020 so hopefully the 5 year warranty will hold up. I contacted RealTruck and they asked for the SN and mailing address to send me a new one so fingers crossed 🤞

Does Real Truck own the Bak brand now? My old email receipt says I bought it in July 2020 from Truck Hero?

Hey all, so my BakFlip MX4 is breaking down after about 3 years or so., mainly the rubber joints between panels are completely cracked off and they allow water through. Plus since they don't pivot correctly the latchs don't seat on the rails well. Anyone know if they sell replacements or how to...

Yep, always turn the fans off during a car wash 😜

Fuel efficiency has only continued to slump over the last year. Now getting averages in the 13-14mpg range and not seeing better than 19 on the highway. I drive like a grandpa. I've got good tires and pressure, good alignment, fresh air filter, oil changes, ran a bottle of Redline SI-1 through...
