The door drain outlet is located inside the lowest sealing strip of the door, which can be seen by lifting it up. The sunroof drain outlets are at the corners of the sunroof, visible when the sunroof is opened. Below are specific details about the JADE: 1. Body dimensions: The JADE is a compact car under Honda, with a wheelbase of 2760 mm, and length, width, and height of 4667 mm, 1775 mm, and 1540 mm respectively. 2. Powertrain configuration: The JADE is equipped with two engines: a 1.5L and a 1.8L. The 1.5L turbocharged engine delivers 156 horsepower and a maximum torque of 203 Nm, with a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm and a maximum torque range of 1600 to 5000 rpm. The 1.8L naturally aspirated engine produces 141 horsepower and a maximum torque of 174 Nm, with a maximum power speed of 6500 rpm and a maximum torque speed of 4300 rpm.
The Honda Jade I previously drove had an issue with rainwater leaking through the sunroof because the drainage outlets were blocked by leaves. Later, I figured out that the Jade's sunroof drainage outlets are typically located at the four corners of the sunroof frame. There are two near the front windshield and two more at the rear near the top of the car. Each drainage outlet is connected to a thin hose that extends down to the bottom of the A-pillar or C-pillar, where the water drains to the ground near the wheels. If you're not careful during daily driving, debris can accumulate in these areas, especially if the car is parked under trees or left unused for long periods. This can cause water to back up into the cabin, soaking the seats or carpets. I recommend gently cleaning these corners with a hose or a hairdryer every quarter to prevent issues—such small maintenance tasks can save a lot on repair costs.
