CLK 240 - 2003
Water found under Passenger footwell

i did my search even saw other threads, yet i dont have the same plastic trim under the windshield as the ones i visited.

hopefully my case is having the hoses clogged and in need to be cleaned.
yet i took the AC filter of and found the hose, yet it is well put in the corner and close to the battery that my hand wont fit there to take it out.

what are other measures for cleaning the drain hoses of the car.

(im sure it is water, not AC coolant)

Thanks in advance for any help.

Did you check your sunroof drains?Try clearing them with a air compressor.

I can't speak for the W209 body style since I have never owned one.On the W202's there is a small "flap" along the passenger side firewall that allows water to drain out.You may want to check to see if the W209 has it.I have to check it every so often this time of year with all the stuff falling out of the trees.I learned the hard way about the "flap" - I had to replace 3 blower motors from it clogging up.

Take a look @ this.
i take out the air filter and as you can see to the utmost right there is a hose coming down. assuming this is the water drain hose from the passenger side windscreen, this is the one i need to clean? cz its tight in there cz of the battery.

i know there is another one in the middle, but i dont think that is the issue.
