Good afternoon
My 1996 CS leaks around the sunroof during heavy rains. I have noticed that the water that gets in around the sunroof is not draining away. Does anyone know where these drains lead and can they get plugged ?
thank-you in advance kr
If they're like the c900, then yup. There's drain tubes from the front corners, down through the a-pillars, and drain into/below the engine compartment somewhere in the area of the wheel arches. Those hoses can come off the fittings. More likely to be plugged, but don't clear them too aggressively or they'll come off. Any elasticity they had new is pretty much gone. So don't just pump compressed air down them or you're done for sure.
The front drain openings are on either side inside of the aquarium. Open the plastic panel between the windshield and the hood and you can find it. The drain hose has a rubber tip. It must have clogged. I'd remove and throw away the rubber tip. use this opprtunity to clean the aquarium, either by compressed air or if you don't have one user your garden hose.
The rear drains are next to the rear wheel arch I forgot front or back. But you can spot it crawling under the car.
