'99 Scenic Drain Holes.

Unread post by gadgetgricey »

The drivers side footwell on our Scenic is getting water logged.

Have checked the "scuttle" by removing the windscreen wipers etc, and that's clear, so now need to check the sunroof drain holes, as I hope that's the culprit.

I'm assuming front wheel off, are they then visible or do I have to take the wheel liner off as well.

Also where is it located, is it obvious. (I'm assuming it'll be covered in road gunk, and that's why its blocked)

Any help/advice would be appreciated.

Many Thanks

Never done the job myself but I believe the sunroof drain tubes come out behind the wing liners.

If you have access to compressed air you could try blowing down the drain tube from the sunroof end to see if that will clear it.
You could also try pushing a long piece of wire down the tube, curtain wire would be ideal as this is very flexible.

Cheers.
