Spare Wheel Well
Good Evening All,

I was looking around the car on Saturday after a drive and noticed a little fresh water under the back of the car, on closer inspection it looked like it was out of the spare wheel well, removed the space saver to find about 2mm of water .

Has anyone had this before and point me in the direct to resolve? I don't want the car to rot away lol.

Thanks all.

It'd be easier to count who hasn't had water in there lol, the usual areas are the gaskets on the rear light units, the vent on the L/H side (behind the boot trim), missing seam sealer around the boot area generally, rear shock top mounts can let in water.

Check the rear washer pipe under the rubber boot at top of the hatch. Mine had split.

Thanks for the reply's and the link Maxfly, That's my Saturday booked up lol.

She's lasted me 5 years so far and I am not letting her rot herself away just yet.
