Where is the drainage pipe located in the trunk of the Volkswagen Magotan B7?

The drainage hole in the trunk of the Volkswagen Magotan B7 is located beneath the spare tire in the trunk, which is the lowest level of the trunk. Blockage of the trunk drainage hole: The most prone to blockage are the drainage holes of the sunroof and the engine compartment. The engine compartment drainage hole is located near the air conditioning intake, where bacteria can easily grow, affecting the air quality of the air conditioning system. The sunroof typically has multiple drainage holes, each connected to a drainage hose, which can be seen by opening the sunroof. Car drainage holes: There are many hidden drainage holes in a car, generally located in the engine compartment, sunroof, fuel tank cap, and below the door panels. The functionality of these drainage holes greatly impacts the car's usability.
Last time I went to fix the water leakage in my Magotan B7's trunk, it took me quite a while to locate the drainage pipe. It's quite hidden, near the spare tire well under the trunk mat. After lifting the floor panel and seeing the spare tire, pay attention to the edges of the spare tire recess—there's a circular drainage outlet on each side with a plastic pipe connected to it. This pipe plays a crucial role, as it drains water during rain or car washes. However, its position is too far inside, so I had to remove the entire spare tire to get a clear view during my inspection. I recommend cleaning the pipe opening every six months; a cotton swab will do the trick to prevent it from getting clogged with leaves and causing odors like mine did. Remember not to pile up items in the trunk that might block the drainage outlets—keeping them clear is essential.
