The sunroof drain hole of Roewe 350 is located at the lower left opening. You can reach up from below the dashboard and feel it with your hand. Here is some information about Roewe: 1. Introduction: Roewe (ROEWE) is an automobile brand under Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (Group), launched in October 2006. 2. History: Roewe's automotive technology originates from Rover, which was previously acquired by SAIC, but the brand is independently developed. Since its establishment, the brand has grown rapidly, covering the mid-size and upper-mid-size car markets. 3. Brand: Roewe's brand slogan is 'Taste, Technology, Achievement,' reflecting SAIC's commitment to inheriting advanced international automotive technology with an innovative vision, focusing on civilian vehicle technology, and building a new international brand classic with determination and confidence.
I remember driving a Roewe 350 for several years. Its sunroof drainage holes are located in the gaps at the four corners of the sunroof on the roof, where there are small holes connected to thin tubes leading to the bottom of the car or the wheel arches. If they get clogged and not cleaned, rainwater will flow into the car through the sunroof. I've experienced this before—not only did the carpet get completely soaked, but there was also a musty smell, which was quite annoying. I always keep a small wire or an air gun from a hair dryer handy and poke the tube openings every few months, especially before the rainy season. This keeps the interior fresh. Sunroofs are nice to use, but if the drainage holes aren't maintained, they can cause big trouble, especially in older cars where the tubes accumulate a lot of leaves and dust. Cleaning them only takes a few minutes.
When I first got my Roewe 350, I was curious about the drain hole locations. Later, I asked a friend and learned they're at the ends of the roof rails on both sides—specifically, tubes hidden along the inner sides of the A-pillar and C-pillar that lead outside. I ignored them the first year, and after rain, water seeped into the cabin, forcing me to spend a whole day drying the seats. Now I’ve learned my lesson: I check them every quarter by pouring water to ensure smooth drainage. The tube outlets near the wheel arches underneath can easily get clogged with mud. A soft wire is all you need to clear them—simple but super important to avoid expensive interior damage from waterlogging. I also try to park less under trees to prevent leaves from causing issues.
