Default Help with water leakage in car

Hello,

I have a 93 seville sts......i live in Florida and since the recent tropical storms we have been having I noticed that my car was leaking water through the roof. When I get in the car after a heavy downpour and after I start moving I notice water falling from the sunroof corner on both sides. Any help with this would be appreciated. Thank you.

There are drain hoses leading from all four corners and down the roof pillars. Check to see that they're clean and free of obstruction. If nothing is blocking the inlets, they might be clogged further down. You could likely clean them using a fairly thin, flexible wire. A 14 guage stranded, insulatedcopper wire might be ideal. They're quite flexible and should be able to pass all the way through without damaging anything.

I've used low pressure compressed air to clean mine. It also helps you to hear and find the drain tubes that areunder the car.
