Is the sunroof on a RAV4 waterproof?
It turns out that sunroofs are not waterproof. They have a drain system around their perimeter under the glass. The drains connect to tubes that run down the A-pillars and then are supposed to drain out onto the ground by dripping in between the body panels and the inner chassis (for lack of a better term).
Why do I need to clean the drainage tubes on my Toyota RAV4?
Cleaning the drainage tubes is an imperative task on the Toyota RAV4. The tubes collect and drain water off the roof to help protect the sunroof area. The tubes clog with dirt and debris and the water will eventually begin draining inside of the car.
