Could be a number of things, enter "boot open" in the search bar at top of page.

41 pages of info with same problem. Will be quicker that way.

If no help, you will need to crawl in your boot from back seat and pull your boot cover off to
get a closer look.

Its driving me crazy, all it seems to be on here at the moment is broken boots, wet carpets and faulty thermostats :grin:

i was going to do a right up for flooded car including pictures of said parts prone to leaking, but havent got around to it yet. that way it saves every other thread being about a wet carpet.

If you do that I'll sticky it and that'll save explaining a thousand times the potential problems :afro:
