The drainage holes on the Honda XRV are located at the bottom of each door, with two holes per door (one at the front and one at the back). Below is an introduction to the XRV: 1. Introduction: The XRV is a strategic model launched by Dongfeng Honda for the compact SUV market. It is another specialized model developed to meet the needs of China's young population, following the Jade. 2. Exterior: While inheriting the excellent quality of the CR-V, the XRV incorporates Honda's latest design concepts, featuring a sporty and personalized appearance, finely crafted interior, and vibrant colors, all based on Honda's MM (Man Maximum, Machine Minimum) concept for innovative packaging layout. 3. Advantages: With the spaciousness and comfort of an SUV, the 1.8L model comes standard with a panoramic sunroof. It is a true cutting-edge and fashionable SUV, providing a brand-new automotive lifestyle experience for young urbanites who love fun and adventure.
Let me talk about the drainage holes on the Honda XR-V from a car repair perspective—you’ll understand better after driving it for a while. The drainage holes are mainly located in several areas: small holes along the bottom edges of the doors prevent rainwater accumulation; drainage tubes around the sunroof guide rainwater away; there are also holes under the engine compartment to drain condensation; plus, near the trunk and the inner side of the rear wheel arches. When cleaning, use a thin stick or blow air to clear these holes to avoid blockages and rust. Maintenance is quite important—I regularly brush the door holes with a brush to prevent water buildup from corroding the body. Poor drainage design can lead to rainwater leaking into the cabin during rain, affecting electronic components. I recommend owners check these areas every quarter, especially before and after the rainy season.
I paid attention to the drainage holes right after buying my car, and the Honda XR-V's design is quite thoughtful. Their locations are obvious: there are two small holes under each door, easily visible with a gentle push; there's a drainage hole near the air conditioner under the hood; small drain tubes are hidden in the corners of the sunroof, directing water to the underside of the car; and there are also holes near the wheels at the bottom of the trunk. As a newbie, I got curious and used a flashlight to inspect them, only to find some blockage. After cleaning, the interior smelled much better. Poor drainage can lead to water accumulation and odors, even soaking the carpets. It's common for dust to accumulate from daily driving bumps, so I make it a habit to wipe the holes with a damp cloth regularly to avoid costly repairs later.
