Hi there,
The scuttle panel on my 94 Xantia has started to come away from the
windscreen at both ends. I can get my finger under it in places. I'm also
getting a trickle off water coming into the passenger side footwell, so I
figure the two are related.
I'm going to try and seal it this weekend - does anyone have any tips on how
best to acheive this, and is there anything I should try and unblock while I
do it?

Remember that you are trying to seal AND bond the scuttle, which is why ordinary silicone sealant can be ineffective.
Windscreen adhesives are usually polyurethane based ~ black ones are preferable because they are less susceptible to UV degradation.
Perhaps somebody like Autoglass might sell you a tube?
It can be applied with a regular sealant gun. I wouldn't expect it to be cheap though ~ £30 at a guess.
