    Dude nice. Just got them all taken care of. I've had leaking in the spare tire compartment for over a year now. Thanks for the info!

    I’ve been procrastinating doing this I’m glad I found this. This seems so much easier. After I fix this then I have to fix the sunroof shade. Ugh!!

    Thank you! In SoCal it is easy to forget these until it is an issue. It should be part of preventive maintenance.

    You made my job much easier. Cos I was going to start with the sunroof gasket. My Passat is leaking both front and back.

    I have an 01 Mk4 Jetta Sedan, so only front drains but they drain into a much better location. Into the door jamb. My solution was to take my steam cleaner I have for detailing, and just shove a jet of hot steam down the top of the drainage vent near the sunroof. If it's really being difficult, mix in a tiny bit of all purpose cleaner or a low foaming dish soap.
    Alternate the steamer and compressed air to keep the risk of melting anything low, and e-vent-ually it will vent again!

    I suspect this is my hassle. Water in the back left foot well so will go this route before stripping for hours and hours. Thank you so much

    Why haven’t you made videos about bypass oil filters not much videos on RUclips about them.

    • @JustDiesels

      I don't have a ton of need, but they make sense for people logging tons of miles. To me it's just easier to change my oil every 5k

    My problem isn’t a clog, it’s that the tube from the sunroof connects to another tube at the dash at the bottom of the a pilar. I can’t figure out how to reconnect them without having the windshield removed because there isn’t enough room to get your hands down in there to push them into each other. Hopefully I can find someone with that problem with a solution other than windshield removal.

    • @JustDiesels
      @JustDiesels  4 месяца назад

      It’s actually quite easy to re-connect there if they get disconnected. Just remove the a pillar trim piece, and wedge your hand or a tool in there. It’s not common that’s the issue though.

    Thanks for the video. I’m getting water in the spare tire well. I’m going to try looking at the hose where it comes out behind the fender liner.

      @@ridge9066 Make sure the hoses aren't disconnected. That's another common issue that happens. You will have to slightly drop the head liner to confirm the connection at the sun roof area. It can also leak at that connection, so dump water in the sun roof and watch where it goes.
