Its a subaru thing! All scoobs have this fault.
You can upgrade the seals on your boot and rear lights, but it will still get in. Another place is the spoiler mounts.

There's LOADS you can do to stop it....once you find out WHERE it's coming in

My 98 car's boot is bone dry..........NOW.

Do a search for a thread about a boot having an inch of water in it, within the last 6 months, LOADS of info on tracing and rectifying leaks. Thread was called something like "Boot's an inch of water".

I'd find it for you, but my search is playing up.
