    Water in the spare wheel well- RR HSE 2007

    Hi all,

    So first off I want to say- you have an incredible group of members with a ton of knowledge (I am from the US and after paroozing through a couple forums, I feel that you all would have best thoughts on my dilemma).

    I have found a few posts on this topic, but haven't narrowed down a thread with the same issues...

    I found some water in the spare wheel well and have traced it to somewhere near the weld under the tailgate. I have attempted this ( [ame=http://vimeo.com/46200795]MVI 3431 on Vimeo[/ame]), and water does seem to slowly come in, but takes a little while to see the beads of water dribble in. I do not believe that this is the main culprit, as there is evidence of water from the road, kicking up into the spare well from driving... Like small pebbles and leaves... The plugs are all in, and the stones seem to be all gathering in towards the tailgate... I have attached some pictures... I am not at all a mechanic and have minimal tools in my current apartment... Any help would be grately appreciated!! My rear speaker wiring has just shown signs of water damage (it now produces a loud deep popping for the first couple of minutes after starting)... Thanks again!

    Check the bottom corner of your boot seal ! you will have to remove it to inspect properly.

    If good; look at your rear windscreen wiper/washer assembly for leakage, this is a common cause. Also look around your GPS aerial on the roof.
