Hi, I have recently found out that my car leaks everywhere, so i stripped my carpet n drive around for few days to see where it leaks, it turn out that it is the rear washer nozzle that leaks n the water runs to the rear seatbelt cover, but anyway, i found a clear tube that looks like the drain for the sunroof, but I dun get y there is water in them, I know why it has water inside coz it is sitting at the bottom of the floor, and it needs to go back up for draining, but I am thinkin y nissan make it that way, or is that some cheap body shop's job???

if thats not the proper way, can some1 please tell me what is the proper, i wanna fix that, and then put my carpet back.......

Thanks in advance!

^ Bingo.

The sunroof drains run down the inside of the Apillar in the front and down the Bpillar and into the quarter panels out back. They terminate at the bottom of the rocker panel and drain out through predrilled holes.

Pour water in the sunroof channel and see where it's going, you should see the water drain out under the car close to each wheel.
