Clogged side sill drain holes |
Applicable Models/Vins
All 1990 - 94 Miata Vehicles
1995 Miata vehicles with a VIN of JM1NA35**R0521597 and lower
Description
The side sill drain holes may become clogged with dirt and
debris. After a heavy rain, a sloshing noise may be heard due to
accumulated water.
Over time, water left in the sill area will result in
corrosion to the vehicle body metal. To prevent water from
accumulating in the sill area, the drain holes have been enlarged
by 8mm. Customers experiencing this condition should have the
vehicle repaired as follows.
Repair Procedure
- Verify complaint.
- Clean debris from drain holes.
Note: There are four drain holes per side.
- Using an appropriate tool, widen all drain holes.
- Apply a zinc based touch-up paint to cover any
chipping that may have occurred during step 3.
