Water Leaking

Hey Guys,
I live in Melbourne Aus, and in the past few weeks it has been raining quiet hevily. Timmo You would know about this. I am having a problem with the 75 Con SE. I am getting a large amount of water in the Boot/Trunk. I'm not Quiet sure where the water is coming from but it is a serious problem. The water seems to be isolated to left (look towards the front) I'm 100% sure that its not dripping water when you open the trunk. I'm worried that this might effect my GPS equipment (not that its working properly anyways). Just want to ask if you guys have any idea where this water could be coming from.
Cheers
John

i would try taking out carpet and looking for puddles,or you could mix up a very strong solution of car wash with loads of bubbles and pour all around the boot lid area,with all windows/doors closed and your heater fan on max,any gaps were water could get in will show up with big bubbles
hope this helps
PS dont have heater on recirculate,basically what you will be doing is pressurising the inside of your car,sort of looking for a leak in a tyre

Hi xplodinjohnno,

there was a problem with the clips of the rear fender on models up to VIN RJ 208104.

Water leaks through the sealing of the fastening due to an oversized sealing washer.

I can send you a PM with a picture of the described problem.

Regards,
Markus
