Water ingress after todays storm!

After the biblical downpour today I discovered water dripping in to my A2. Ive owned the car for over 7 years and have never experienced this before so was surprised. Made a 40sec video (
) showing what’s going on. I do have OSS but it stopped working 5 years ago and hasn’t been opened since so I don’t think thats the problem. Any ideas?

Cheers. That’s what I get for vigorously cleaning the seals with a toothbrush last week! Must have pushed some muck down the drain. Marvellous.
 
As others have said it’s the OSS drainage channel. I had exactly the same problem two years ago. Use a thin piece of plastic to slide along the front pillar between the rubber and metal. Shouldn’t need to open the roof.

Well that wasn’t fun at all. Used a cable tie and teh cr@p inside wouldn’t budge. Ended up using a blunt knife as a chisel and a rock as a hammer to finally get it all out. That’s 2h of my life I’m not getting back.

Thanks everyone!

But at least your interior will be dry!
