Still in the process of getting my recently purchased 190e into what I'd call good working order !
There are rubber drain pipes that exit under the sills near the jacking points.

On my car, the left hand rear one is missing ! I though it must have got pushed up into the sill somewhere but I can't feel it.

Any ideas please on how to get to these pipes & where they run from ?

Many thanks,

John

Sunroof drain tubes. All 4 corners of the roof cartridge have tubes.

Sunroof drain tubes

Thanks type 49 - how do these route down from the sunroof & how do I get to them ? I've had a quick look under the back seat but can't see anything !

Down the pillars at the sides of the front/rear screens. Not very easy to get at!!

Drain pipes

Did some more work on this today, the l/h rear sunroof drain exists in the trim piece in the picture.
Not sure why this is different from the other three drain tubes which exit at the sills, maybe it's because the sunroof motor is positioned at the l/h rear in the boot ?
Does that sound about right ?
