Condensation/water Droplets On Rear Window, Where Are The Drain Holes


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys.

Am suffering from Condensation and water droplets on the inside of the rear window. ITs only this window which seems to suffer from it after rain.

Have checked the carpets and the interior of the boot where the spare wheel is and all is dry.

Seems that Drain holes getting blocked can be a cause of this. Does anyone know where these drain holes are and how to get access to them to unblock them ?

Thanks for any answers.

Not sure if there are any in the boot seal area. Drains are in sunroof area, two in the front corners and two in the rear corners. May need to check rain not getting into aerial base?

Hope this is helpful or someone else gives you a tip. I have had this problem in the past, maybe rain getting into sunroof seal and running along inside. Do you park on a hill?

TBH never tried to take one off. Does your roof lining feel wet near the rear window/aerial? Check your sunroof channels I think they run along the inside of the car and exit near the rear wheel arches. My problem was solved by cleaning the rubber seal around the sunroof. I have seen other posts on here about clearing the drains in the sunroof area. Worth checking them out if you haven't. Good Luck
