I'm guessing that if you have a sun roof the "drain" tubes will be blocked, as I am sure that's what I've read elsewhere on the forum.
And the passenger foot well does indeed get very wet - had the problem on my old 405 - when the sunroof seal went!
Now the question to the being, where are the damn things and how does one unblock them.
Today, after driving 500 miles in the last 4 days on holiday, with about 2 miles to home (having driven rain like I have never seen before - it was BAD) I turned right and my good lady got water from the passenger sunshade/vanity mirror thing all over her - I guess I have a blockage somewhere.
I'd like to get it fixed sooner rather than later as I have no desire for an angry Gf. You know how it is

On my D8 you just squeeze the two sides of the cover together slightly ( the sides facing the front and rear of the vehicle ) and it pops off as its only held in on tabs. Then you can get to all the Torx screws.michaeljclark wrote:
