Solutions for a clogged sunroof drain hole in a car: 1. Inflation method: Use an air pump gun to direct high-pressure airflow into the drain holes of the two front drain pipes inside the sunroof to unclog them. Remember to use a rag to block any splashing dirty water to avoid it getting on your body or inside the car. 2. Enema method: Flushing the drain pipe with a syringe should help clear the blockage. First, use the syringe to remove any water in the sunroof drain channel to prevent it from flowing into the car. Below are some related points: 1. Hazards of a clogged drain hole: Once the drain hole is blocked, water retained in the door panel can damage the window regulator, audio system, and central door lock. 2. Signs of a clogged drain hole: A damp interior panel is a sign of a clogged sunroof drain hole. A detached sunroof drain pipe can cause the interior panel to become damp, leading to unpleasant mold odors and bacterial growth. If water accumulates at the drain outlet and does not flow out smoothly, it indicates debris inside the drain pipe, which needs to be cleaned promptly. If the outlet is found to be blocked and the remaining pipe length is adequate, you can cut off the clogged hose end yourself.
