PROCEDURE

Vehicles with a sunroof are fitted with drip rails to drain water from the roof. It is recommended to clean the drip rails with an old speedometer cable. The cable is fitted to an electric drill running at low speed. The front drip rails run along the front pillars and are cleaned from the sunroof opening. The rear drip rails run along the rear pillars and end in the rear wheel arches. They are cleaned from underneath the vehicle.
