Time to tweak your nips (aka sunroof drain water ingress)

Featured Replies

There's nothing a Superb owner likes more

than a heavy downpour

To get you checking

Whether there is water on your floor

...

Or in this case, the roof and everywhere else. [emoji35]

Woke to this:

Gave the sunroof drains in the door jambs a quick squeeze, a river ran out if them. The ends had obviously self sealed despite having been tweaked fairly recently.

Thanks, VAG. Now to dry out my interior.

I just spotted this and, being an ex-Passat B5 owner, are you sure that there are not another two behind the rear wheel areas?

There indeed are... should have mentioned that.  In my case definitely the fronts as I park downhill.

A little bit damp under the carpet, at least I caught it in time.  Really annoying though.  Grrrrrrr!  

The rear drains look to be a right pain to get to if blocked, rear bumper has to come off.  Smashing.  Will be checking them with a cup full of water and fingers crossed.

sorry mate...

Thankfully all sorted with minimum fuss. All drains running clear now, climatronic computer decided to kill itself from running the fan full blast for 600 miles. Luckily had a spare on the shelf in the garage :)

Glad you finish job, keep going our lovely Sup <3
