90 CQ Question

[Kneale Brownson]

Have you cleaned out your sunroof drains?  The sunroof drains in front run 
down the A Pillars and exit into the doorjamb just above the lower 
hinge.  Audi recommends running something like a speedometer cable core 
through the drain from above.  While you're at it, you might clean out the 
rear ones, which run through the rear window pillar and exit in the 
wheelwell  in front of the tires.  Audi suggests running the cable core 
upwards for the rears.
