Roof drains leak

[TDZ4]

Hi All, i have been having issues with water coming into the passenger side rear when raining, I poured some water on the roof to test the drains and it came from the jacking point. I thought I will try and clean the drains and I managed to clear the roof drains with a drain cleaning pipe. However when I pour water it still seems to come out of the jacking point as well as the drain hole. Any ideas Thanks

Yup. At some point clearing the drains has dislodged the two halves of the drain pipe. Either live with having to clear the sills periodically or take the roof off in order to remove and reseat the plastic tray under the roof hinges

Will it flood the carpet all the time or just the sills? Also will removing the jacking point be enough to clear the sills ?

If it is getting into the sills it will fill those first. I drained over 2 pints from one sill recently by levering the jack pads to one side. The inside, under the carpet, was still dry though.
You could look at putting a couple of holes near the jack pads

Or pop one or two fixings out of each side skirt- that helps draining

@enuff_zed Should I drill next to both jacking pads or just the rear

I’d pop out the fixings as Stuart says. Depends how your car is usually parked as to whether you do front rear or both

My car normally sits flat on the drive.

I managed to pry the jacking points but no water came, only seems to come out at the jacking points when I pour water on the roof to test the drainage of the roof

Is that the only way to access the drain pipe and check its connected properly to the tub?
