Have never heard of a pipe needing replacement but we often hear of blocked drains leading to overflows or the tray being damaged. There are a couple of drains in the area you mention. Look for a recent thread on here which shows locations. Edit: also check it's not the door membrane that's leaking (wet carpet at bottom of door).

Paul676 Posted July 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 Hi thanks for the reply I have clean all the drains and find that if I put water down this pipe not as much comes out the other end and I can see it leaking into the car from just below the seat belt wheel as I put water down the drain hole... I have used the trumpet pipe cleaner and water comes out fast but also missing some water. I was looking to see where the connection is for the top off the pipe but I don't know howe to access it.

Paul P Posted July 26, 2020 Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 Guessing but based on the diagram with the drain locations the 2nd picture seems to suggest the pipe runs down the front of the rear wheel arch behind the arch liner. ultimately that’s where the water exists so you should at least be able to see more behind the liner.

Paul676 Posted July 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 I am thinking the top off the pipe has come undone and was trying to see if I could access it to see.... but I can't figure out how to get to the top off the pipe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menoporsche Posted July 26, 2020 Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 ISTR that happened to someone, top of pipe came loose. Water goes down drain hole but not into the pipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be able to see the top from the wheel arch with the liner removed - or at least be able to see if it's split etc. - you should at least be able to see if there's a clearer route to access.
