Hi, As I said I'm not an expert. I took a few photo's to show what I did, roof partially open, the white cable tie points to the drain (downhill), which I cleaned with a pipe cleaner. The water flows out through the sill just in front of the rear wheel. Beyond that I don't know, it worked for...

Sounds possible, mine took about 3 weeks to fully dry out. I was placing tea towels and desiccant bags on the carpet, changed them twice a day until it finally dried out. I couldn't really get the air to circulate well with the top open because of the restricted car seat movement.

Is the drain water running freely? My problem was that the roof line drain was partially blocked and couldn't keep up in heavy rain or when I was washing it, but ok with a small amount of water. Maybe yours is getting wet from another direction?

I'm absolutely not an expert but similar thing happened to me. I partially opened the roof, cleaned the drain hole at the top. Then tried rinsing with water, and got a few drips out of the bottom. I used an old washing up bottle to rinse water from the top and a pipe cleaner from the bottom...

Thanks for the welcome, Unfortunately my car is a top up daily driver and needs a really good clean before any photos's WBW Al

Thanks, pretty much what I expected, no need to change the struts. WBW AL

Sorry for the newbie question. Should the boot lift up more than a fraction after pressing the boot release on the key fob? I know I haven't got motorised boot lift, but I wondered if the gas struts should do more than hold the heavy boot in place when it's fully opened? Thanks Al
