Water in pollen filter housing

Hi,
went to change the pollen filter on my 166 today (01 2.0TS)

The bottom of the filter is wet and when you look in the housing there is a small depth of water.

Does anybody know where the blocked drain holes are? Save me taking all the covers off if possible.

Thanks,

Richard

Probably under the pollen filter if it's anything like a 156!

Re: Water in pollen filter housing

yeah,

I was hoping for something more specific than that,

eventually I got under the car and poked around at the rear of the engine ( above the anti roll bar I think) and was rewarded with a face full of water!

Hope that helps somebody else. I know, it is vague too, but it's the best I have.
