What to do if you have leaks from the sunroof of a Volkswagen Golf MK4

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf IV, MK 4, Golf 4 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video we see what to do - but perhaps it would be more accurate to say "what not to do" - if you have water leaks from the sunroof of a Volkswagen Golf MK4. The youtuber, in fact, when he saw the car's sunroof stained with moisture on the driver's side, decided to dismantle everything to find the cause of the leak. However, by tracing back to the cause of the problem, he was able to see that it would have been enough to unclog the tube at the end of the drainage pipe for rainwater coming from the roof, which had simply become blocked, and therefore had trapped all the water from who knows how many storms inside. A good suggestion that saves us from wasting a day just to remove a bit of dirt from a tube.
