Help - boot leak
Hello all
I am struggling to contain a fairly large leak somewhere in my boot, i have checked and replaced boot seal and this does not seem to have resolved the issue. The Car is a 2001 WRX blob eye The water seems to be coming in further back near where the seats are but none of the upholstery or parcel shelf are getting wet. I suspect that maybe the sealing on the back window is the cause but auto glass want £120 to remove and reseal. Before i bit the bullet has anyone had similiar issue, or any ideas where the water is getting in from? Cheers Haighcore |
Dwarf, torch and a hosepipe required!

dont need hose pipe lol all it ever does here is rain lol
must have had this problem on the car for a while as the muppet who used to own the car has thoughtfully drilled a drainage hole in the spare tire well, which he didnt treat with anything and is now happily rusting away:o thing gonna get window re fitted cant see any other access points |
2001 blob eye ?
Has it got the standard spoiler still? rear lights on a classic are very prone to leaking, could be worth a look. |
sorry 2001 bug eye
i have replaced the boot as the old one was damaged and was leaking from spoiler - which is what i though the problem was when i bought the car. new boot is sound and no sign of water comming in from there I have not though of the lights so once this down pour has finished i will nip out and inspect those seals cheers |
Have you checked the wheel arches, i say as i've recently discovered a hole the size of a tennis ball on mine when i peeled back the interior trim in the boot.
Although mines a 98 classic turbo 2000 so you may have a bit more rust proofing on yours... |
