307cc water leak

Unread post by Expertamateur »

Here we go again.
I live in the wettest area of France and have no garage. As a result I am trying to find out why or where the rain is getting into the boot lid. Every time I open it water pours out of the lid hits the cill and splashes into the boot. The carpet is alway soggy and is eventually going to rot out the boot floor. I can not work out how the water is getting into the bood lid. Is this a well-known fault with this model? Can anyone shed any light?
So far I don't seem to have any leaks past the various seals around the roof panels. It hasn't worked as long as I have had the car so I don't see the seals suffering any wear that might cause leaks. Too expensive to get fixed.

I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
