1 Answers
The sunroof drain outlets on the BMW X1 are located inside the vehicle's A-pillars and C-pillars, typically covered by a round rubber plug. The rear outlets are on both sides of the rear longitudinal beams, with one on each side. Here’s some information about the sunroof drain outlets: About the sunroof drain outlets: The sunroof drain holes are situated at the four corners of the sunroof. If these outlets become clogged or the drainage tubes detach, it can lead to moisture buildup in the interior panels. In severe cases, water may accumulate under the car's carpet. Failure to address this promptly may result in mold growth on the interior panels and corrosion of electrical wiring. Over time, this can cause oxidation and rusting of internal components, posing a safety hazard. Maintenance tips for sunroof drain outlets: When driving on bumpy roads, it is advisable not to fully open the sunroof, as excessive vibration between the sunroof and its tracks may cause deformation of related components, generate noise, or even damage the motor. During cleaning, avoid directing high-pressure water jets at the seals around the sunroof glass, as this may deform the seals and allow water to enter the cabin. Before opening the sunroof, check for any obstructions on the roof that might hinder its operation. If present, clean them with a soft cloth and a neutral detergent. Avoid using sticky cleaning agents.
