My 22-year old E320 4matic is rust free, and I'd like to keep it that way despite living in the rust belt.

I was told that the rocker panel drain holes clog up with debris and cause most of the rust that occurs to the lower front fenders and rocker panel areas.

Does anyone know how I can clean them out? Are they just rubber-concealed holes on the bottom of the rocker? Or are they harder to reach and service?

Thx.

use the SEARCH THIS FORUM feature and you should see several with locations identified

on your vehicle you will never be able to remove all the crap that falls between the lower front fender without removing the fender itself which is not difficult

Actually, removing the plastic wheel well liner will expose the backside of the lower front fender. I do it periodically and flush of bits of leaves and drebris.
