I’ve seen a few posts about a wet Macan boot floor and excessive condensation. I now seem to be suffering the same problem so wanted to ask what the solution was for those that suffered from this. If it’s a main dealer solution does anyone know what they actually did and the cost?

Thanks

Hello,

I can't help I'm afraid but do you have a pano roof ? Could the drainage ducts be blocked ?

Yes I do have a panoramic roof. Do you think it’s a simple case of unblocking the drainage holes?

Yep, we started collecting water in the 'storage compartments' above the rear wheel arches, car was about 5 months old.
Dealership determined it was block drainage tube from pano roof, which was easily fixed by them.
Although it took a few days to properly dry out.
Whilst a bit of hassle taking the car back in, it was very well dealt with - not sure why they don't 'mod' the drainage tubes before sending out though

I just don't understand why Pano roofs are so popular. I can only assume it's a dealer trick to increase sales value?
