I was already calculating repair costs before you and Lex gave me back my piece of mind.. My RX330 Lexus also got clogged and I managed to remove the debris from the draining canal thanks to your video!

[@bbtrevival]

Nice work! Glad you got it sorted. I just woke up to wet carpets in my RX330 as well. Will be getting on that next weekend 👍

[@emmanueldimgba1845]

Thank you. I had this problem. Cleaned the drains and I hope it doesn't happen with the next rain

[@bbtrevival]

Fingers crossed for you

Thanks

Welcome ☺️

How do you clean the rear drains? I can't even find them.

[@richnichols2332]

Thanks you've got a great, calm voice, and nice camerawork! Can one also use compressed air to clean the drain hoses?

[@bbtrevival]

Thank you! Compressed air can sometimes work but is risky as it is more likely to cause pressure fit joints in the tubing inside the roof lining/pillars to pop off without you knowing.

[@richardr5013]

FYI-don't use compressed air, it will blow off the lines and they're a nightmare to reconnect.

[@bbtrevival]

Exactamundo! I have seen a number of people recommending that online. Recipe for disaster.

What was wrong with car stereo

[@bbtrevival]

Audio was a dead factory amp. Given it was an after market head unit we were able to just bypass the amp and run the head unit straight to the speakers. Then ended up with a dead touch screen. Managed to fix that myself. Here is the link to that fix. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJDZlIOZiMdnfq8si=EsqPK_Uh7iHJwY0Y

didn't work for my 03 is300. I tried even air and nothings unclogging it unfortunately. I ordered an unclogging tool on amazon, it'll be here Monday.

[@bbtrevival]

Good luck with it. Could be something more than dirt build up, like a little tree seed/nut or something. Or a physical issue such as a kink in the drain lines. If it’s your front drain then they normally run down the A-pillar. Could be with popping the trim off and having a look. Good luck with it!

[@Gone_Rogue300]

@@bbtrevival I ordered a drain line to unplug it and see where the issue. Is it difficult to remove the side to get to the hose.

[@bbtrevival]

@@Gone_Rogue300 shouldn’t be too bad. I don’t know about your car specifically, but some just clip in place and come straight off with a pry tool, others may have a screw or two hidden behind things like a grab handle or the airbag badge. If you have airbags in your a-pillar just make sure to disconnect the battery first as an extra precaution.

Fuck , why people waited until they fucked it up until you fix it ? Why , because they are dumb or what ? Or they wanna waste money ?

[@bbtrevival]

Yep, a little tiny bit of preventative maintenance and this kids thing will never be a problem.
