i recently took my spare wheel out but when i lfted the carpet in the boot to remove the wheel the wheel well was full of water any idears why anybody?

 

taken my sound deadenin out and drained the water out but now i have re sound dedend it and drilled 3 holes in to drain an other water out,

any idea why it filled up?

Have u used a car wash recently? thats when my old scort used to fill up like that, maybe a leak in the floor if u did.

come to think about it i did i used a new one at sainsburys was really imoressed ith the underchassis cleaning too could reallly feel it hitting underneath, most probably was that cheers matey

Also the lights at the rear sometimes let in water and if not there is a gromit on the rear spare wheel carrier make sure it`s there and fitted correctly .

 

regards

will check it out cheers mate

yeh you may want to seal in the rear lights ive done that on a few cars before because of the same problem

its strange cus my amps are sat just under the rear lights and they havnt got wet "luckily"

I keep getting water in the nearside wing directly behind the wheelarch.

 

I've sealed the lamps, removed the boot seal and cleaned it several times, adjusted the rubber buffers and lock, and even completely sealed the seal with silicon.

 

And, guess what? It still flippin' leaks every time it rains or I wash the car

lol lol strange one, is there any holes in ur arch??

Nope. All I can think of is the rear quarter window, but when I get me nipper to put the hose on It seems to come in via the boot seal even when theres no water near it I reckon I'll have to live with this one

mee too matey, lifes a bitch innit

I once had water in my wheel well, happened when I left the car outside without the tailgate glass

Yep, that'd do it every time

aye i have this problem 2, took my spare wheel out and there was a little water in there, but from the looks of the colour i know where its come from, but it means that theres gotta be a small hole or summit in the wheel well, gonna check out today i think
