Nice concise video showing just what is required to get the job done. Thanks for your efforts, well done.👍

What a great video..I am selling the car and had this issue..you just save me and the future buyer lot of headaches 💪👍

This is an absolute awesome video. Very well explained and step by step. I wish all videos were as good as this one. Thank you

I had an aquarium last year due to this problem. Arnold Clarke charged £800 to take the carpets out, and ‘fix’ the drains. I’ve just spotted the water again on the mats. Going to get it sorted today and man I’m I thankful for this video. If only you had made it 4/5 months earlier!!

Great video. I applied this video to my Clio - the principles seem the same. Thanks a lot!

Had the problem with water in the footwell.Watched your vid and got it done today.Thanks.Made it possible

Tremendous job mate. I was getting condensation inside the car for the last few weeks and eletrical issues as well and this trick did it. The drains were simply clogged and I had no idea how to access them. Cheers!

Great video. This was really helpful. A couple of my findings in case it helps anyone out there. My car is a 58 plate UK RHD. So its getting old!. The plastic side parts that goes to the windscreen could be pulled upward without any tools. Those came out with a bit of gentle force. The main problem i had was unblocking the drain pipes and wiper arm removal. Getting the wiper arm nuts off was easy but the arms refused to come off after years of corrosion, even with WD40 applied. Had to buy a pulling tool from a local shop (as you suggested), and that then did the trick. Drivers side drain pipe was blocked but unblocked easily using stiff bit of copper wire with tape wrapped around the end so it wasn't sharp. But the passenger side was totally blocked and would not shift. In the end, i used boiling hot water in the hole and a plumbers cleaning tool, like a brush on a flexible pipe. Eventually it shifted it!. Loads of black crud came out the bottom.. Then finished up with a hose pipe and flushed both drains through. Done. Now how does this long rubber seal clip back into place along the scuttle tray? Just seems to sit there without any clips along the front? assume it just sits there..

Big thank you - this was perfectly helpful on my Megane RS!

Very insightful, thank you very much, i'll be buying that little hook along some new plastic clips for those i've broken prior to past repairs. I'll be glad once it's all fixed. :)

Thanks for the video. I just bought an old megane 2 second hand, and I guess the owner conveniently didn't tell me about water coming in. Indeed both drains were clogged up, had to use a pipe cleaner to clear it up. Hope theres no permanent damage.

Thabk you so much! I did this today. It took me about 2 hrs

Thank you brother, much appreciated for making this video. I need to get to work now.

Legendary video mate, thanks for the professional video

Good video, do this every year as drivers side blocks. Passenger side better and bottom of the drain is behind wheel arch liner so easy to get out and clean the mud at the other end.

Great video. Will be trying this tomorrow, wish me luck!

Thanks, This worked a treat for me.

Thank you so much. Very helpful!

Saved me a couple of hundred quid! Much appreciated!

Yep, spot on, thanks. I'm glad I saw this before I splashed the cash on new door seals.

Thank you♥️... you help me alot

Between rubber seal and plastic panel I have a lot of free space, something isnt right. I see that you used black plastic bladder to connect them. How did u do it? I would need to make hole somewhere..

You can do this without taking the wipers off. You will scratch your hands however. Its just a matter of feeding the plumber thing through the gap

Great video had this issue on fiat 500 but helps me understand what it is garage did mine not expensive thank you

Watched this to find out how to stop the bonnet seal sagging down. Cable tie cure! Made me chuckle😸 It seems every Megane 2 suffers from this. Poor design renault. It allows water to overflow onto the engine! I'm trying to figure out a different kind of fix.

Great vid sir, i wanna do that too. Where does the water come out from? Near the tires? Or it just falls of from near the drain. Maybe im not clear, where does the drain pipe end?

Merci ! ✌

My heater fan is rattling and I think there are dead leaves in it. I will try with the plumbers tool. Thanks for the explanation!

Hi mate. Cheers great video. Would this be a reason that my Aircon/heaters pack up once rained? Something like a blockage?

Thanks . Just finished unblocking both drains . Both were filled to the top with water probably about 10 litres total . mine wasnt exactly the same but similar enough . my side trims were alot easier than yours just clipped off ( 56 plate scenic 2 1.5 dci ) Thanks for a well filmed an informative video ..

Great Vid. I will be doing this! I've just bought a 2012 megane expression. All the footwells are damp as well as the baseboards in the boot and in the spare tyre compartment. Are there similar drain holes at the rear of the car too?

Hi! Thanks for the great video. I've been having problems with moisture inside of my car during winter and I'm guessing this could be the problem. I'll definetly try to fix it this way. I already took a short look at engine bay and I noticed that the piece of fabric on which the rubber seal normally sits is completely degraded. The rubber seal doesn't slot onto it properly anymore. Do you have any idea of what you call that piece? I'd like to replace it as well. Thanks in advance!

Evening thanks for you video, can I ask the stupid question what tool did you use to undo the four clips before you opened the trims pieces thanks in advance

Hi mate. Trying to use an auger (the plumbing tool) but no luck. It keeps getting struck on something and I can't get through. I'm not sure if it's a blockage or if these scuttle drains have bends? And perhaps I'm stuck on a bend and I need another sort of tool I don't know. I'm not sure what these drains look like so it's hard to know all I see is a hole. Is there any trick to this? We're you able to push your auger straight through with no bend?

Great video. I'll try this tomorrow as soon as it's light. Pretty sure you've just saved my car, the front carpets are pissing wet.👍

Just a suggestion why not cut holes big enough for the drain cleaner tool and then you don’t have to remove all the plastics and the wiper you can just use the hose and the tool to clean the gutter drain. There’s already some holes in the top plastic it just needs another two to have direct access above the gutter

Hi. Does cleaning left one is enough to not get UPC and cabine wet? I cannot reach right one under windscreen wipers ( have no tool to remove cover).

¿Alguien sabe cómo se accede al desagüe por la parte de abajo (la salida? Gracias de antemano.

Thanks for the video! It's really helpful! Why the cable ties around 0:50 ?

How do you remove wipers? I undo the nut, but they dont budge at all. Thanks for reply!

It all seems to make perfect sense, is this the same for Renault fluence? The whole arrangement in that car seems quite similar to me. Have water flooding into the passenger side of the car clearly coming from underneath this part of the car. Pretty sure it's the same kind of block of the drainage

Is there any chance this could be the reason I’m getting a lot of condensation on the inside of my windows?

I noticed a cabrio version there. Does the cabrio have extra drain holes.? If yes can you plz make a video with the cabrio version too.?

Water goes down the heater inlet cabin filter will need replacing also 👍🏻

Amazing how those wiper arms just miraculously disintegrate at around 5 min. LOL!

My carpets wet in the back passenger footwell behind the the front passenger seat any ideas , thanks

Would this be a similar fix for the Dacia Sandero?

Is the clip removal tool a Renault one .kindest regards tim

Hello mate I have got water in the door bin , is it the same problem that you described in this video?

Hi pal what area are you from and do you do private work I have a no 2 megane that needs a few odd jobs doing ?

Don't think I have any water damage in mine (2008 Ph2) but I would like to check the scuttles just in case. I am curious though how the blockage outside of the vehicle manages to seep its way into the cockpit 🤔 (2 month update) the water has come in on driver side 😂 (Update to the update) job done, quite simple. I think someone has done it in the past, the wiper bolts came off easily. FYI, I used the Dipstick as a rod to flush the crap on the driver side, my fingers couldn't get in the tight hole...

Thanks for the video, I’ll try it tomorrow, when you start pumping water in with the hose, where is it meant to come out? Thanks in advance Edit: I’ve just done it and it all came out of the bottom, list of been a few litres in there, do you have any idea how often this will need to be done? Thanks for the video, it was very helpful.

Side trims if you want to remove just slide up vertically.

I had a similar problem, what he did not show as it removing complete rubber pipe, should be cleaned and to external termination removed completely a stopper, it is like direction valve, that why many times rubber hose blocked with trash !

You didn't show us how you removed the parts from theirs installation centers 🤨🤨

These bloody wipers won’t come off very frustrating

I think you have a bigger problem then water leaking in. Your missing a steering wheel ,brake pedal, clutch, and gas pedal.😂🤣😂🤣😂
