Upon closer examination, you’ll notice water splashing around the glove box, where the blower motor resides. While one might assume a leaking seal at the base of the windshield, but if it’s a factory windshield, this is unlikely. More commonly, small leaves and debris can obstruct the drain tube, causing water to accumulate. This tube is crucial as it allows water from the cowl in front of the windshield and the air conditioner evaporator to exit the vehicle. If it becomes clogged, water can seep into the car through the heater/AC system.

In this video, I’ll demonstrate how to clean the tube in under a minute. Warning: brace yourself and be prepared for lots of water to rush out!!
