Hello,
I recently discovered puddles in my driver side footwell, both front and rear on a new (to me) Discovery 4/LR4. After some quick googling, I jumped to the conclusion that it would be sunroof drains and set about fixing. Before ripping everything apart, I thought I’d test to confirm and was surprised when all 4 corners seemed to be working just fine.
Long story short, after hours of searching, turns out that it had a new windshield the day before I bought it and I’m waiting for that company to come and refit… but that leaves me with 2 questions…
1 - I’ve searched high and low but can’t find any posts on how to actually remove the lower center console in order to get the carpet out to dry it… am I blind or has no-one posted that?
2 - and the point of my thread - it appears that sunroof drains leak - just a matter of when, not if. Is there a general timeframe when they start to go? Is anyone out there doing preventative maintenance to replace the grommets / connectors that seem to self destruct? While i’m at it - are people doing the same with the A/C evap drain?
