Hi all i am a new owner of an eos.
Vw eos roof drain tubes.
Two in the front and two in the rear.
The recall is not for fixing the leak its just to clean and snip the tubes.
If you are having issues with water inside the cabin of your volkswagen and have a sunroof chances are your sunroof drains may be clogged.
I have tried a cable to unclog the drain at the top but it is not flexible enough to make it through the fitting.
If the first problem occurs the second follows very soon after.
I pretty certain it is a clogged drain hole tube that you can see on the lower corners of the black roof section when the roof is partially opened.
I have a leak in my rear passenger pillar.
Pull the seal strip around the door frame off and away from the headliner and pillar.
Locate the position of your drains and the nipples.
The drain nipples will be on the front side of either door jam.
At this point it won t reach you just yet the drain tubes does a great job to lead the water out of the cabin.
Grime and muck can build up at the base of these drains and also inside thus water collects and then spills into the cabin and boot areas.
The rear ones may vary from car to car but are generally located on either side of the rear bumper.
So don t bother or you will be hit with a diag fee.
