Boot leaking

[Skitsokiwi]

So due to this weather I have now found a swimming pool in the boot of my wrx. she leaking in the top left side/corner. I\'m pretty sure its the rubber seal, but theres no cracks or holes.

just wondering if anyone has had this problem before and know the best way to fix it?

probably leaking into the boot from the tail lights.. remove and reseal/ refit

there should be a large rubber bung or two in the bottom of the boot to help you drain it. no hints for where its leaking though

Jump in the Boot at night and have someone shine a torch around the seals. If an old flattened seal is going to leak it will let light in. (like a fridge door).

Also pull the Seals up and make sure there are no little rust holes hiding underneath.

Pull the carpet out until you get the leak sorted too.

Usually the tail light seals leak after a while, But with my old GC8 Sedan I found that where we used to park it (On a steep driveway facing downhill) when we had heavy rain the water would accumulate and flow over the boot lid seals and into the boot, Fixed it by buying a Gf8

Good fix.
