I opened my roof today and found the front drains, little bit of mud in there and how it gets there is a mystery. I cleaned everything and the drains are fine. Could not see the rear drains, may try to locate from below and blow air up through them.

SOMETIMES THEY HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE DRAIN LINE! My 06' H3 had that problem and never leaked again!

Woah there brother... Do NOT blow up through the line. More than likely the clog is at the exit where mud and road grime can easily splash into the hose end. If you blow up you are risking pushing that clog further up the hose and may have difficulty getting it out.

Default Oxymoronic question...

The real question to ask is: Are your roof drains clogged? By design, the sunroof will have a bit of water infiltration, but the water then needs a place to go. There are two drains in the roof cut-out. If they are clogged with debris(leaf matter or other such debris), then GM designers had the bright idea to have the excess drain INTO the vehicle. It will show up in the driver's foot well and down the right rear pillar and under the rt. rear seat and/or floor... Nice of them to design a system with no redundancy wasn't it? Guess there was too much money going towards hack union labor and not enough left over for research and development. At least now the unions aren't allowed to strike against Government owned GM! Maybe better products are in the pipeline.....we will see.
