Sunroof leaking by drainage tube?

[_Onyx_Wolf_]

Anyone ever have this issue? Been chasing this issue for weeks now and can’t seem to find out how water is leaking through the plastic in the sunroof. Other drain is fine but the passenger side drain is the one leaking. Filled the passenger side drain with water and it seems to drain fine then stops. Im guessing the water might be sweating through the plastic since it has no place to go??. Tried water proof sealant, flex a seal, etc and it’s still getting through. Any tips would be appreciated lol

There’s a leak. Water doesn’t sweat in one spot. It’s hard to see in pics where it’s be leaki by from? My guess is above the hose. Or at the hose. You sure the hose isn’t clogged? Wish you hadn’t flex sealed it. Why would you do that if it’s not cracked? There’s a drop of water on the hose. Its either the hose or they housing. Replace the housing.

You said "it seems to drain fine then stops"
If its draining "fine" then you should see all the water running out onto the ground at drain hose exit underneath the car,
If its "draining fine then stopping" the hose is most likely clogged near the bottom at the exit and the hose fills with water, which makes it seem as though its draining, But all its doing is filling the hose up and the water is leaking into the car at or near the connection you show in the picture.

I’m thinking this I’m going to try and use an air compressor and blow it out

My thought was their was a hairline crack or something so I figured a sealant would seal it up lol. Thinking it’s a clog at the bottom of the tube

So it's draining through the sunroof plastic which is the sunroof shade you mean? Only thing I know of from experience and others is water forming a puddle from it draining into the rear trunk. But the roof?? Hmm...

For those wondering blowing out the tube that drains from the sunroof with an air compressor fixed the problem. Water now exits through the side of the door jam area. Thanks everyone for the help!
