2002 Avalanche Z71 1500 Sun Roof leak
1. Tried snaking with a plumbing tool but would only go down maybe 8", then tried Trimmer line but blocked at the same depth, then I tried air pressure...no help there.
2. Removed the side bar and parted the "hose" at the joint and tried the 3 methods above...still not working.
3. I looked for the bottom of the hose and noticed a foam flap near the hinges had debrie sticking out. I held the flap with one hand, removed 17 years of soil, leaves, and other debrie---probably 2 cups of soil like stuff. Then used WATER pressure at that split joint...worked. Put it all back together. BTW, I could see water coming down the drain through the area behind the flap.
With drain problem solved on both sides, I found with the liner removed that the edge of the glass over the driver's head (mine) was dripping on the edge of the line before splashing on me. There is no channel or pan to catch that water like there is on the sides and edges. I could easily see the water "slipping" between the gasket and the edge before dripping down on me. I've seen a gasket at this site: https://www.dkhardware.com/replacement-silicone-main-seal-14-x-33-autoport-sunroof-RS200SFC-product-26152.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjwocPnBRDFARIsAJJcf97N3lIHovSrsVh3pNkMwYZzVxeyv42_EKUWtPrcJGhYxfxLHUix56UaAmwZEALw_wcB but don't yet know how to take old gasket off and install the new one...and I'm not sure that will solve the problem.
What's your thoughts on the matter? Still hunting for a DIY video.
