big g1985 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Got a water leak into the boot of my wife's 54 plate c max. The garage sealed around the wiper as they thought I was coming in through there. Well it's still leaking. I've had the trim out today and a hose pipe on the go. It's not leaking around the light fitting but it's damp up around the top of the inner panel. I can't see where it's coming in and there's nothing obvious. I had one drip by the seat belt mount on a double skin but again I can't see where it's coming from Any help will be greatful Pic shows where it's dripping in by the double skin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Have you checked the rubber seal around the outside of the boot, I suspect water is leaking through from there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big g1985 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Seal is fine I sat in the car whilst the wife sprayed it with the hose for 10min Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Sounds like it might be the light cluster? Sent from my MY SAGA C2 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big g1985 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Not light cluster either had it in and out and all dry around there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 weird, those are the only two places I can think, unless of course water is seeping in through the roof rail. down the drain and leaking out into the boot from there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glover789 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Hi I'm having the same problem, did you manage to sort it? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmission Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I had this problem and after checking and sealing the places usually mentioned and finding water still getting in, our attention turned to the air pressure relief vent behind the bumper on the left hand side and we found the inside of the rubber flaps were soaking wet. The vent is about the size of a Chinese food carton lid, which is useful as that's exactly what we siliconed over it to effect a temporary water shield and hey presto no more leak. Not an ideal repair I know but I will revisit the problem when the weather's a bit less Baltic and make some kind of cowl to cover it while still letting it breathe. Am not saying this will be everyone's problem but it's certainly something else to check Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
