Hello everyone, how is it possible for water to get into the lower area of the draft deflector (see attached photos)? If the water passes between the body/glass seal of the panoramic roof and arrives in the drainage duct where it then exits through the drainage holes, it should not be able to enter where the draft deflector is. I don't understand what's causing it. Thanks, Daniel

Hello everyone, In these days I found out the same issue described from @BigJakkon my Octavia. Initially I noticed water coming out at the bottom from the driver's side, near the bonnet opening lever. The next day a lot of water came out from the passenger side, still in the lower part under the bonnet. I disassembled the A pillars and checked the drainage pipes, cleaned them and the connections are ok. Seeing water still coming out of the top where BigJakk was showing I went to inspect the upper basins more closely and found that the outer basin where there are the two drainage holes is working properly and the water is not stagnating, while in the housing where the concertina fabric noise canceller is fitted it remains completely full of water. The questions are twofold: 1. how does water get into that space? 2. there are no holes for it to drain and I think it seeps into the plastic slots and gets into the interior of the passenger compartment. I will now try to see if I see any cracks in the plastic parts. If anyone can help me I thank them.
