Where is the drainage hole of the xrv car door?
2 Answers
xrv car door drainage holes are located at the lower part of the door panel, usually there are two, blocked by a black round rubber plug. There is a certain gap between the car door and the window, and rainwater can easily enter the car. At this time, it will be discharged from the bottom of the door. Introduction to car doors: The car door provides access for the driver and passengers and isolates external interference, to some extent reducing side impacts and protecting the occupants. The aesthetics of the car are also related to the design of the doors. Quality of car doors: The quality of car doors is mainly reflected in their anti-collision performance, sealing performance, and ease of opening and closing, as well as other functional indicators. Anti-collision performance is particularly important because when a side collision occurs, the buffer distance is very short, making it easy to injure people inside the car. A good car door will have at least two anti-collision beams, and the beams are relatively heavy, meaning that good car doors are indeed heavier, but it does not mean that the heavier the door, the better.
The door drain holes are located at the bottom edges and corners of the doors, which are easily overlooked. I remember from driving a Honda XRV that they are positioned on the inner plastic trim panel at the bottom of the door, usually small round or oval-shaped holes, present on both front and rear doors, not far from the door hinges. If they get clogged, rainwater accumulates inside, leading to rust in the door interior and potentially damaging the window regulator, causing squeaky noises while driving. I once neglected cleaning them, and water seeped into the car, causing a lot of trouble. When cleaning, use a thin wire or a cold air blower to remove debris—avoid using hard objects that might damage the rubber seals. Check them weekly after parking, especially during the rainy season, and make it a habit to save on hefty repair costs. The car's drain holes are designed to protect internal components, and Honda does a solid job in this regard. As car owners, paying more attention can significantly extend the vehicle's lifespan.
