I looked in my boot and on the passenger side to the rear there was a massive puddle down by the passenger side rear light. Any ideas which part needs replacing for this problem? Arches or window sill...other?

Thanks.

Boot seal at a guess

Could also be seal on back of rear light, or the arch has rusted through.

Rear light seal tends to fill lights not leak into body iirc.

If it's split at the top it p**ses through the mounting holes, mine used to do it.

theres a plastic cover on each side inside your boot to gain access to the rear arches if you need to undo your bumper.

mine used to pop of with air pressure i can only pressume, in my 1.4. if i went through puddle this would let a large amount of water in.

happened a few times so i got fed up and siliconed them in and they stay put ever since

I take it that these are the things you're talking about?



Did you have to remove anything to get them in?
