Paddling in the back seats!

Thanks for the suggestion but it's a hatchback.c.morewood wrote:Is it an estate? If so it could be the plastic seal inside the rear door. I had problems with a wet boot for years, till I found this forum.
I have had a dry boot for over 2 years now.
There's a opaque plastic cover behind the trim on the boot door which seems to be there to stop water leaking in through the rear wiper seal from getting into the car. Its attached to the door by a double sided sticky tape of some sort.
I have just augmented the tape with loads of good quality bathroom sealant around the bottom half of the plastic and no more wet car.
I would guess that as your car is parked facing downhill the water would make its way from the boot unde the rear seats intho the front foot well.
You could test this theory by parking facing up hill if thats possible.
Hope that helps
I will check the hinge again when I get chance (going on holiday at the weekend so it won't be for a few weeks.)
