Inspect and clean the vehicle drain holes 0

There is a lot of rain in summer, such as dust, leaves, willow catkins, pollen, etc., which may block the drainage holes of car doors and sunroof. On rainy days, the drainage of doors and sunroof is poor, which eventually causes rainwater to accumulate in the door trim panel or the trim panel near the sunroof, causing loss.

In fact, as long as we prepare a thin wire and a bottle of water and simply check it ourselves, we can effectively avoid the above situation.

(1) Drainage inspection of main and auxiliary driving doors
The first is a circle of adhesive tape on the top of the door to check for damage and blockage by leaf lights.

The second is to directly dig out the four drainage holes at the bottom of the door and clean them with thin iron wire.

(2) Middle gate drainage inspection
There are also four drainage holes at the bottom of the middle gate, evenly distributed on the bottom. The two at both ends are easy to clean, and the two in the middle, because the middle door cannot be opened outwards, need to be touched with your hand before cleaning.

(3) Skylight drainage inspection
There is a circle of rubber around the skylight, which may be stuck, deformed or damaged by sand and leaves, causing water seepage. At the same time, if the sunroof drain holes are not smooth, the incoming water may not be drained, and eventually the interior will be damaged by immersion.

Check the skylight drain holes (the drain holes are on both sides of the front end), clean up leaves and other debris, and finally use a water bottle to pour water to see if it can be drained in time.
