Water inside of boot (Where spare tyre is kept)

[luke0380]

Booked in for tuesday next week , along with some other stuff i've asked them to do.   They got the car for two days.

I did take some pictures of the water in the boot this morning as it has been raining all night.

I asked the Steeler if i could have a MARK 6 Golf as a car but they said they don't have any in their fleet.....  Only got a whole gargage full of them ! , how are they expected to sell mark 6 cars if i can't even get one as a coutersy car.

I had the same problem after my car was repaired after being rear ended, it was down to an air vent that is behind the bumper on the side that was not replaced properly resulting in when it rained the water collecting in the spare wheel area.

I fixed it myself but it does involve partially removing the bumper, tell the dealer when you are going in and they can do it.

It will defo be the tail light seals, got mine done on my R32 under warranty.   

Not nesessarilly!

It could be pin holes in the flange welding at the top seam near the tailgate hinges, or the actual tailgate seal - both very common probs.

And if you have a sunroof, it can be either incorrectly sited rear drain tube outlets, squashed drain tubes, or even faulty sunroof frame (which was my prob).
