Unread post by wrinklet1 »

Hi, I have just been throught the car wash and found water dripping from the glovebox!!!! I think I could hear water swooshing around and now I am wodering if it is a blocked drain or something, OR something worse??? Is it a common fault??

Scuttle drain at the bottom of the windscreen will be blocked at both sides. There will be a good 10 litres of water sloshing around in there and finding it's way inside! I've had to do this on all of my Méganes but never a Scénic to can't advise on how to gain access, sorry :( (The well is under the plastic strip along the bottom of the windscreen)
French is best.

thanks for he reply, I had looked under the wiper trim and like you say, both drain holes were blocked. Easily sorted and got me away from the wife for a couple of hours too.....
