| Post subject: | Water in Sills |
Been through a bit of water lately and tones of water blasting after being up the beach... I've noticed that when I take off from a stand still or stop I can hear a tone of water sloshing around in the sills. Question is...... Do I drill a hole, how big ? Screw size or larger with rubber bung ? |

There will be folds in the sheet metal to drain it out, I'd say they're blocked. |

They should have drain points along the seam underneath. You might just need to clear those out to get the water out Edit: what he said ^^^^ |

My Vitara did same. My water was in the front guards area. Drain holes were blocked from wheel arch bashings. I drilled holes, and modified my sliders, to drain mine. Drilled holes in sliders, too, to keep them drained. |

Thanks guys you were bang on... I looked underneath , found the holes and thought... It doesn't look blocked to me Got the compressor cranking and got up under there with the air gun...... Next minute I had a huge waterfall pouring out onto the ground. Cheers |
