Water in Picasso Rear Footwell

Post by JT »

Hi,
Just wondering has anyone come across this problem with a Picasso?
Last week I lifted the door on the storage area in the floor in the rear footwell ( driver's side ) to discover about an inch or more of water!
The water was clean which makes me think that it did not cime from the road.
We have had quite a lot of rain recently, so I am thinking maybe it is coming through a door seal?
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Don’t know about the Picasso, but most recent cars, including the Xantia, dump all the rainwater from the back onto the taillight cluster.
If the sealing isn’t good, the water gets in through the opening for the lamp wires.
That causes wetness starting from a rear corner of the boot.
