    HELP! Water in the car....

    Okay, I remember we used to do this a LOT when it was raining a lot, but I never bothered to learn how. Sunroof drains are clogged and so the water goes into the driver's side of the car. Anybody able to tell me how to clean these so it stops??? Carlos maybe? Mad rep for anybody who helps...

    take an air nozzle with compressed air and blow air into the drains (lightly, you don't want to blow the hoses off) and that should take care of it. front ones are easy to get to in the corners of the sunroof cassette by the wind deflector, rear are a little harder, you got to get to them from under the car and fart the leaves up into the cassette and blow them out.

    you really dont want to use air because patrick is a little slow and probably will blow off the hoses. use the inside of a speedometer cable as a plumbing snake. chase the debri down with a little water.

    Use a scuba tank that is about 3000 to 3700psi that will blow that hose right off.
    Oh wait you dont want to blow the hoe do you?
    Air from a compressor will work just fine...
