Where can I blow out my sunroof and cowl drains?

bimmerd00d · 08-15-2012, 10:10 PM

I have a new windshield, and the cowling looks good and tight. The little covers under the hood were just laying in there sideways. I would like to take my air compressor and blow them up from the bottom side. It looks like they taper down towards the bottom. I pulled a few leaves out, but i'm sure there are more down there. Also, where do the sunroof drains end up? Need to blow those out too. The passenger footwell had water in it after taking it through a touchless earlier this evening.

so much for the cowling being good and tight, I must've been looking at something else. That thing is loose as can be. The water is coming out of the floor vents in the passenger footwell. Is that the telltale loose cowling?

I'm gonna take a guess and say you didn't get the windshield replaced by BMW dealer?

It was replaced before I bought the car, not in my control.
