Car has a sunroof. Oh on driver side. Lots of water after a heavy rain!
Hi George, It sounds as if the the sun roof drain pipes are blocked. There should be four and the are fitted into the roof pillars draining downwards at each corner. A flexible rod can sometimes be used to clear blockages, but care should be taken not to damage the rubber hoses. Regards John
I agree in theory but if there are 4 hoses/drain holes then rear two aren't visible. I am considering ripping pillar open from inside to find tube and try to fix/replace/clean or reattach the hose. It sure wasn't visible from rear! Took everything apart yesterday trying to find it! Vw's manuals don't show the route the hoses take. I spent an hour at dealer yesterday! Any insight would be appreciated!
Hi George, I have never had to deal with your particular problem on the new Beetle, but I have had a few similar problems on other vehicles including Audi, BMW and Benz being the German vehicles. All that I have dealt with have had four water drainage pipes, one at each corner. To access those at the rear may very well result in having to remove the roof lining from inside the vehicle and tracing from there. Don't be too surprised if you need to remove more than the lining. Regards John
