Water leaking into boot - titch - 31-12-2012
I have a small water leak into the boot of my phase 3 hdi, it looks like it is getting in by the rear pass side light. I have removed the light, cleaned up the body work and also the rubber seal, which looks to be in good condition, but it was covered in crap. I have put it all back together and will have to wait and see now.
Is there any other problem areas to look at?
Cheers

Is it on the left hand side of the boot? If so it maybe a hole in the body above the rear left wheel as mine had one. It's worth checking there as it's a common problem on the PH1/2's and 5 doors.

I had a problem with water coming in on my ph1 d turbo. I drilled a couple of holes where the jack and wheel brace go

Cheers for the replies fellas, will have a look, just waiting now for it to rain a bit more and will go out and see if it is still leaking.

Same with my 405, drilled a hole in each corner and hammered down slightly lol.
On a serious note, the OP needs to get looking up their rear wheel arch for big gaping holes around the upper seatbelt mounting. Also re-seal rear lights.clean seals and vasoline on them.

I only have one picture of when I did mine, but this gives you an idea.

That's the size of the damaged area. It is of course now repaired but I don't have any pictures of after.
RE: Water leaking into boot - Rob_p6 pug - 31-12-2012
I made an arch liner out of an offside one to stop the crap going up up there :-)
RE: Water leaking into boot - titch - 01-01-2013
Fooking hell, i hope mine is not like that, i will have a look tomorrow and see.
RE: Water leaking into boot - titch - 02-01-2013
Had a look at it today and no hole, all looks good there, i did remove the rear light and clean up the body work and the seal, and have put vasaline on the seals and so far so good no more water in the boot.
