How do I stop water leaks in my car through the air vents?
I have had problems with water getting into the front of my car through the air vents if the drain in the air box gets blocked, usually by leaves. How can I stop this?

Everyone has this problem. The answer is to regularly clear the drains. The best tool for this is a 'teapot spout brush'.
