boot leak?
« on: 16 December 2009, 16:08 »
Hiya guys my bootlid is leaking but its only leeking into the bootlid itself not into the boot. ive de-wipered the boot and its not leaking there the only 2 places i can think of are the rear window itself or the boot hinge, has anyone had leaks here before?

cheers tim

I think that you have just answered your first thread mate!

The boot is leaking so is causing damp in the car! therefore your window is steaming up!  :wink:



Woops. thought u said window in your first thread not mirror.. (its been a long day ) :grin:

i just blocked it up cause the electric pump part has been removed surely it wont do anything, but it was leaking before but only when it rains thats why i dont think its rear washer, also did fix the part in the roof liner a  while ago. But as said it only fills with water when its raining and i mean the bootlid actually fills right up when its heavy, really not sure where its coming from
