Leaky boot in Citroen C1

[ben22]

Hi,

Apologies if this has already been dealt with ad nauseum (I've had a search, honest...)

I've just bought a Citroen C1 and when putting stuff in the boot this morning I noticed water trickling down the driver-side inside panel into the boot (possibly from the seat buckle thing at the top?). There's also a damp patch on the ceiling at that side. I phoned the dealership who offered to look at it next Wednesday(!) and only thanks to persist moaning did I get them to bring that forward to Friday. I live in Scotland - not a country known for its long spells of dry, sunny weather - so I'm keen to make sure the inside of my car doesn't get all damp the next time we have a downpour. Any ideas what I can do until the dealership takes a look? (I don't have a garage btw.)

Many thanks, Ben.

What year is it? If its the later mk2 the high level brake light is known to cause leaking issues. Theres a modified light unit that had better sealing.

It's a 2018.

Hi Ben. Did you get your leak sorted? I've got a 2019 C1 with water coming into the boot when I lift the tail gate up. Ian.

Apologies for the late reply! No, it has never been resolved satisfactorily. It's been in to the dealership twice, and I just noticed yesterday it's still happening.
