Shop recommendations for Burbank, CA area

[xhaus11]

I am having some leaking issues with the car into the passenger side floorboard, not any of glass or seals or drain plugs but somewhere on the backside of the dash. Looking for any decent shops in the Burbank, CA area that have experience with VW Beetles any suggestions would be great.

The leaking you are talking about are the sunroof drains. Take your car to a Vw dealerhship and ask about the sunroof drain recall and just say you lost your letter if they ask for it

but to clean them yourself, its actually pretty easy In the roof of your car in each of the 4 corners, there are little drain holes. With a can of compressed air, spray into each of the little holes and youmay even hear all of the water lol. Its a lot!

Another way that can can be tricky if the tubing is filled is to take off the A pillars (next to windshield, they pull off without and special tools and at the base is a tube that goes into the hole. If you pull the hose (CAREFULL BECAUSE WATER MAY DRAIN OUT) and spray the compressed air there, it will work great there too. Weedwacker string is also great. Do this on both sides.

In the rear, if you open your hatch, you'll see the rubber. Spray the compressed air in there also.

IMO, the easiest way is from the sunroof.

Finally, to find a local Vw specialist, you can take a look at the bottom link in my signature to get you started!
