I bought 2 meters of cycle gear cable sheathing and started to feed that into the drainage hole. At about 1.5m in it gets stuck on both sides. That's about as far as half way down the door frame. No sign of a release of water and muck on either side.

If I could find the exit point, maybe I could work the cable sheathing in from that end. Can't find anything on the web for where it might be on a D3. On a D2 it appears to be half way down the door frame between the hinges. On the D3 there's a fixed circular black plastic cap both sides where that would be.

Hmm.
In the wheel arches
Rhd
Behind the washer. Bottle behind wheel arch cover on right side.
The other is in the same place but no washer bottle
Don't pull out the end grommet because it won't go back in.
It's a crash little slit that won't let ant solids through.
