When it wasnt raining, i noticed a hole at the corner of the boot so i filed it up with some sealant and I thought i fixed it ( I poured water on it and it didnt leak ). Well the other night it rained very hard and when i jumped in the car and moved it, i could hear a water slushy sound.

I opened my boot and my carper was soaked and the well for the spare tire was filled up like a little pool. I had to use an empty ice cream container to empty it all.

I checked my seal and it only seemed to leak when the boot was closed and i noticed that when i open and close the lid, the metal where the hinges are bolted onto flexes real bad.

I pulled the rubber seal of and there is no cracks in it and the lip that the rubber seal slips onto isnt cracked either.

How much do you think its going to cost me to get fixed ? to me it looks to far gone to fix it my self. Everytime i try feel for the hole, rust just falls down :confused:

Luckily it didnt wet my sub box but im going to remove my subs and amp so condensation doesnt kill them.

Yeah I get the same problem with the boot abit! I find that water also get's through down the other end too! well if it's only small maybe some gapfiller or putty might fix it actually a better option would be that liquid rubber stuff i think because it's gonna rain again and it would be more waterproof.

but having said that the right side looks pretty bad!

Yeah mine leaks and there isn't even an issue. Open the boot when its raining and it dumps all the water on the lid into the damn boot. Consider yourself lucky you don't have that issue :)

remove the side covers of the sedan
and clear the drain holes
ther is a drain vent there
also check under the chrome strip arrowed

usually there is a gap inbetween the boot to rubber seal
the hinge has only a minor adjustment

I removed the chrome strip and there was a huge hole the size of a 5 cent piece and a smaller hole on the other side. I covered them up with heaps of sealant. It doesnt look pretty but it has stopped the leaks for now lol.
