Thank you for taking the time to make the video. My issue wasn’t the same, it just became disconnected at the top, but your video and explanation was so easy to understand. Gave me the confidence to go for it.

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

Glad it helped

Estuve a punto de dejar mi camioneta en la agencia para revisar esto, es exactamente el mismo problema que tengo, y solo por el diagnostico me cobran $200 dlls, muchas gracias por esto video

You are a lifesaver!!! Had the driver's side on my 07 Mega cab was leaking not three days after I bought it. Dealership replaced windshield three times before it stopped leaking (for six months). Wasn't going to take it back to stealer ship. Finally broke down and spent about two hours looking over everything and figured tube may be blocked. Noticed if my truck was parked leaning towards the passenger side, I didn't have any issues. Used compressed air and blew out hose as best I could. Seemed to work but had to repeat the process several times a year (16 years). Accidently came upon your video. Haven't repaired it yet but I'm going to do both sides asap. Really appreciate you putting this online 👍👍👍👍👍.

I thought mine was the windshield too. I didn't even know there was drain lines on the sunroof until I suspected that might be it, and looked it up on the internet. BTW there is drain lines on the rear too. Good luck and Merry Christmas.

Wow. That blue tube is terrible. I have a 2018 Ram 1500 Longhorn and I watch for leaks front and rear each time it rains, snows, and after Washing my truck. So far, there’s not been any evidence of sunroof leaks, only from my 3rd brake light. Thanks for sharing your experience!

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

👍

[@Fit4EVR]

Thanks, very informative!

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@allentinaz164]

Great vid. Got a 22 TRX. Driver side front mat saturated under the rubber sound pad on the slope under the break pedal. Going to give this a try.

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

Glad it helped

[@bradhuisman6643]

Great video. Thanks. My line broke pulling the new one. I used 5/16 ID vinyl tube. I found my 18" plastic drain rooter and fed it from the top of the dash at an angle towards the hole. Was able to feel the tip. The fed the tip through. The tip is barbed and gripped the inside of the tube. Gently pulled it up. This took less than 5 minutes.

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

Nice work!

[@chrislovelace8957]

Where did you find your 5/16 ID vinyl tube at?

[@bradhuisman6643]

I ordered mine off ebay.

[@davidburt6342]

Thank you.

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

You're welcome!

[@ModernMessiah]

I'm going to try this tomorrow on my GMC. Thank you buddy

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

Good luck!

[@ModernMessiah]

@@DIYOnTheHouse thanks for the info. Got it fixed. The hoses were dirty and disconnected but the quality of the hoses were still good

[@motogold9]

Very informative and well articulated. I'm assuming you haven't tackled the rear ones yet.

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

Not yet. Really don't look forward to that.

[@somebodypeculiar]

One thought I had when I saw hour weak that blue plastic tube was... Get a string that will fit down the blue tube. Use a vacuum cleaner from the bottom to suck the string through the tube. Then at the top, insert the other end of the string into the new tube and suck it through that one two. That way if the blue tube disintegrates - as you mentioned happened on the first one - you aren't fishing. (Sorry about the louse explanation.)

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

That might work. Thanks for the input!

[@jeremiahbean9652]

About to try to tear into this. Had water pouring out of my driver side sun visor screws running down the A pillar. The 5/16 ID tubing I’m finding is 7/16” OD

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

Good luck with the repair.

[@dimakolefdys4889]

If your old line breaks pulling the new line through. You can pop put your electronic harness next to the drain boot behind the door. Allowing you to get some fingers in there and further feeding it to the drain hole next to it.

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

Thanks for the tip!

[@user-db8ew6lg8l]

How much clear 5/16 tubing did you need to do one side sun roof drain

[@user-db8ew6lg8l]

I like the video gave plenty of information to use thanks for the video

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

I think I got 6'.

[@Hoppy1571]

What length of 5/16” tube was cut for each pillar post? I better start preparing to change out my hoses too. After that, my next project will be the vents at the back of the cab.

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

I'm not sure. I over measured so I wouldn't come up short.

[@TreeFeller4Life]

Thank you so much for this video!!!! Now I can replace mine and keep water from pouring into my rubber floor mats…. It puddles up from dripping out of the pillar handles 🤦‍♂️

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

Glad it helped!

[@estelagarcia2485]

I have the same problem, 😢

[@chrislovelace8957]

Was wondering where you found your 5/16 ID tubing at?

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

Ace Hardware

[@andrestorres5748]

Is that 5/16 id or od hose?

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

I believe OD, you would need to take a broken section of drain with you to the store to make sure.

[@countryboy1201]

i know u said 5/16 id what was the od?

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

Shoot, I can't remember.

[@aurasystems]

Mopar trash. They have been using the same junk for decades.

[@aurasystems]

I did like your video though. Well done. It’s just upsetting that Mopar hasn’t improved this product.

[@DIYOnTheHouse]

Thanks. I think they could have installed a tube a little more robust as well.
