My sunroof is leaking badly in my car, i have removed all the roof lining and one of my drainage pipes is badly blocked. The only problem is, i cant seem to unblock it.
The pipe wont come out when i pull it and i cant find where the bottom of the pipe comes out either :S

Any suggestions as to what i can do :(

try using an air line, blow some forced air down it :y:

Some people have done it by poking a cable down the pipe, a CoAX or welding wire I've read about people using.

Did you use any silicon sealant on it, if so what type/where from? I need to do mine tomorrow :(

I have put a cable down the pipe and a copper wire and they both got stuck halfway down :(
I havent used sealant im going to use tiger seal though

I couldnt yank it out, fixed the problem now though :D there was a clamp holding the pipe and it was causing the water to back up into my roof lining and drip everywhere

Theres a bolt that clamps the drainage pipe, it's next to the bonnet pull handle, undo it 10mm and put a load of washers on it.
