Afternoon,

After 6 weeks of ownership, the other day after 2 days of rain I noticed a damp patch above drivers seat. Thr car has a pan roof, so I assumed drainage plugs in the corners of sunroof were blocked but agyer spraying water down they appear to be ok on both sides. What I have noticed is the drivers side wheel arch area drips for alot longer than the passenger side.

Could this be the exit point of the drainage pipe being blocked, and due to the very heavy rain is backed up? I pulled wheel arch back as much as I could and I think a small drip is coming from behind the indicator, has anyone had similar experience, and what was the outcome. Thanks in advance.

Nb: it has rained a good amount in the 6 weeks I've had it , and this is the first time atleast noticing it.
