My Ride: 2004 530i - titanium grey/blk/anthracite, Nav, SMG, Sport, Premium, Cold Weather, HUD, moonroof, heated steering, xenon active lighting, Dakota leather, power all.
I just noticed that the outside weatherstrip on my rear windshield is cracking. I looks something has taken little nibbles out of the lenght of my weatherstrip. This is pretty bad for a car that is not that old. I do not believe this have cause any water leak yet, but would rather not wait until it's too late. Does anyone have this same issue? Will this be something that my dealership can replace as a faulty part on my e60 under warranty?

You lost me there buddy.
My car is nearing 3 years old as an MY04. There should not be any cracking in my weatherstrip this early. My wife's Nissan is 7 years old and the weatherstrip has not faded, cracked, chipped or anything. It looks like someone else has this same issue from the above post, maybe it's a defect for this model year.
