- I used that little drain weasel tool.
It's actually meant for cleaning drains in sinks, home plumbing, etc.
My backup plan was to use weed eater string.

Thank you for this video! Had this problem with my 2019 Outback. The passenger side drain was clogged. I even had that very same snake tool in the garage.
The clogged drain was cleared within a few minutes, and also checked the driver's side drain, which was working fine. 👍
This video helped me to clear up the extreme leaking through my sun roof. I just took a coat hanger and found the holes on both corners where the sun roof meets the roof frame and cleared the gunk out of the holes. Thanks so much!!!
I was going to use a weed eater string if what I showed didn't work. A coat hanger sounds perfect too!
Just so you know that is rubber tubing and a coat hanger could really damage it
Great info! 5 mins and done. Thank you!!
Definitely going to check mine!
Awesome video thanks fixed the leak straight away... by the way i had this issue earlier and water travelled down the A pillar to the passenger foot well and shorted out the release for the electric hand brake.. hand brake would not come off had to that the car trailered to the shop for repair.. shop replaced both hand brake motors $$$$$ only for it to happen again the next time it rained.... all because a blocked drain.... man... Subaru what were you thinking....
Cheers.. going to do mine after you explained, what issues could arise...
thought you were gonna blow it out with the air hose as a back up, that thing fit perfectly though!
Gonna get a snake, and start doing this once a year, LOL!
Got to doing some research, and there are drains that need cleaning, on the rear of the sunroof.
I thought I said it in the video but there is one on each corner of the sunroof. I didn't think showing each one was needed.
@@bruceyyyyy I'm not sure if you did.
I just think it's a real pain, LOL!
I really wish we could've had the choice of getting an Outback without a sunroof, LOL!
I know you can, but it's a very base model, that cannot be upgraded with anything...
Would this lead to water pooling in the rear floorboards and front driver's side floorboard?
It could! It's easy to check.
Nice video, how is your sunroof tray area so dirty though.
Should also do the other corners.
👍
Awesomo 2000! Great tip! Mine has 132,000 and still drains okay here in dusty So. 3:15 California. Should check em’ though. Hey Bruceyyyyyyyy, I was recently using my rear 12v power port to pump up a pool floaty with air compressor and lost power. Checked fuses and all seem okay. Even replaced with spares just in case. Under dash and center console 12v both working fine but rear cargo port is dead. Any idea? Thanks in advance.
I missed this message. Did you ever get it sorted or did you still need help?
Took it apart and sure enough, it was melted so plastic in the way of making contact. Cleaned it up, put it back together and good as new. Thanks!
I have this same problem i need to try this as well lots water coming inside me car
Would be great to zoom put and see the whole sunroof.
Is there a specific thing you're looking for?
Is that thing betrer than a trombone brush i used to use on a miata?
Anything that will clean it without damaging it. I planned to use weed eater string if that mini snake didn't work.
Where did u get the mini snake
I have a link in the description but most hardware stores should have an equivalent.
This is why I hate having a sunroof on my car.
Unfortunately I think they're standard on certain trims.
