  • Water in boot/spare wheel

    Unfortunately I have fallen victim to the water in the boot and spare wheel area. Collected about a litre of water and had a nice patch of white mould under the boot carpet as well as the sound deadening is soaking wet.

    Traced the leak to the passenger side as the drivers side zig-zag deadening is bone dry. Couldn't see anything obvious yesterday but today after raining I found it..

    It's leaking from one of the locating holes for the rear lights, looks like it was removed and never replaced... probably when I asked Perrys to replace the light before I bought the car as it had condensation!

    This hole should have a rubber grommet in the hole, the drivers side still has one - therefore doesn't leak. Off to scrappers tomorrow!! (for a new bung, not car :P).

    Could be a good place to start for others looking for a leak.
