Damp boot hawk / new age
My boot seems to be leaking somewhere - what is the main culprit likely to be - seals?

I think you'd benefit from a lesson in how to use search engines, you ask more questions than my Wife

Could be one of 3 choices
1/ If the lights have been changed can be them, as need resealing when fitted.
2/ Boot rubber.
3/ If you've had an after market spoiler this could be leaking in front where fitted

She said to stop asking everybody else to do your work and do a little bit of research on your own

Good for you. By the way, I do normally help people out if I can, but not people who don't seem to help themselves
Have a good day

Well it may shock you but I have actually searched in the past and found a few possible causes as reflected in the responses to this thread. As I'm on an
Impreza forum I had the crazy notion of asking fellow enthusiasts what (in their opinions)the
most likely cause was.
I hope you still love me!

I'm sure you did research for the other 12 threads you've started in the last week as well!

For many of them probably, then I logged in to a
Subaru forum to ask the opinion of other
Subaru owners.

My leak was from the cable for the third brake light that comes through the boot lit from spoiler, bit of sealant with small nozzle sorted it from the inside.
