Where is the sunroof drain hole of Baojun 510 located?
2 Answers
The front drainage pipe of the Baojun 510 is located at the corner of the A-pillar of the sunroof, and the most prone areas for clogging are the drainage holes in the engine compartment and the sunroof. Precautions for using the car sunroof: 1. When driving on extremely bumpy roads, try not to open the sunroof, as the bumps may cause deformation of the components between the sliding rail and the sunroof, and even damage the motor. 2. In winter, when temperatures are low, the sunroof is prone to freezing, and the sealing strip may also harden. Opening the sunroof abruptly may overload and damage the motor. It is recommended to turn on the heater first and wait for the ice on the sunroof to melt before opening it, which can effectively protect the sunroof and motor. 3. When washing the car, avoid directing a high-pressure water jet directly at the sealing ring, as the impact of the high-pressure water stream may deform the sealing ring, and in severe cases, damage it.
I've been driving the Baojun 510 for over three years, and only noticed the drainage hole issue when the roof leaked during rain last time. This model's sunroof drainage holes are located at all four corners - you can see the small holes on both front sides when opening the sunroof, while the rear drainage holes are in the corners behind the guide rails. Once after rain, water leaked into the driver's seat, and the mechanic said it was due to clogged rear holes. Regular car washes should include cleaning these holes, especially in spring when tree fluff easily blocks them. I now use an air pump to blow through the holes until hearing water flow out from under the chassis. It's recommended to clean sunroof guide rail grooves with a small brush quarterly and check the holes simultaneously. By the way, there are also drainage holes on the sides of the trunk, but those are separate from the sunroof system.
