Hello guys new member I Have a ML320 with the large sunroof, have tested the roof and water enters the drain gulley and drains, but it drips onto the electrical fuse board and carpet and slosh's in a cavity below the floor.

Need help in finding ways to stop this damaging the car further.

The drain hose run down the A pillers, take of the panneling and check for splits of tars in the hose. Check the hose exits which are in the rear of the wheel arch on the front wheels behind the pannel.

I've never had this on a merc but loads on loads of other cars I've pulled the wheel arch liner away and hosed out all the trapped mud. Job done.... Good luck

Thankyou for all your advice I have found the hose has a flexible connection/bend just above the electrical fuse board and this had come off, but strimmer wire identified the route and located the break in the tube.

Thanks
