Rain Drain Valve

Recommended Posts

The water drain problem under the cowl in the engine room.

For FFH, it seems to have some electric wiring and transmission components there. I'm worried the water pouring causing some problem.

I found 2013 still have two pipes to drain water. For newer, the water is drained via two small drain valves to engine room components.

Will the drain problem be an issue? Any one tried to resolve it?

I have a 2014 and the water drains on top of the wiring, like in the picture, which I don't like at all. Everyting is sealed under the hood and water should not cause any harm, but I think the less water, the better.

 

I installed 2 flexible looms which divert water to the ground. Doesn't look pretty, but it gets the job done. I'll try to post pictures later.

Yes, I also feel less water is better for reliability. Hence, wait for your picture and seek a DIY solution...

 

I also have found half solution in a Chinese website, but it only resolves passenger side problem.

For driver side, how to resolve it?
