Title: Water in the boot..??
Post by: fatboy-slim on 20 March 2004, 18:26

Hi i seem to have a leak i opened the boot today to find a little pool of water  :'( looks like it is coming from the boot seal i think.
If it is the seal how do i fix or may be it could be something to do with the way the water runs away from the roof. any help would be cool just i do not want to get back seat wet..

If its a metal factory sunroof then you need to check the drain tubes as these may be blacked and this may be allowing water into the car.
