Video tutorial

In this video we can see how to remedy the problem of the trunk of the Volkswagen VII that has filled with water; this is due to a break in a part of the bodywork. The water passes filling the rear cavity and then enters the trunk.

To solve the problem we will have to remove the bumper and clean the air intakes - or buy new ones and replace them - but first we will have to drain the water from underneath (as the youtuber shows us, going under the car to show us the water drainage hole) so that the car does not have an unpleasant moldy smell inside.
