Auditory phenomena of water after precipitation


Recommended Posts

Greetings, everyone!

Following exposure to rain, my P550 emits water sounds (indicating fluid movement) during the first few hundred meters upon starting the vehicle and throughout turns. Auditory emanations originate from the rear of the vehicle. Ceiling?

Is there anybody else?

I own this as well. Resembles water flowing via a hose with each rainfall. There is no water in the cabin, therefore I presume it is draining from the car via these pipes. I have inspected all the carpets, including the front, rear, and cargo areas, and found no dampness whatsoever.

It is a very peculiar sound, however. I completely concur.

Ensure that you inspect all the drainage lines around the panoramic roof. I recommend taking it to the dealer and informing them that you hear water. Neglecting this issue may result in water ruining the vehicle's electrical harness. I experienced it on a Volvo XC60. All panoramic roofs must have their drain lines inspected periodically, particularly if the vehicle is parked outside. The conduits will get obstructed, hindering adequate water drainage.
