Default I cant find a leak :confused:

Hey guys, alright so when it started raining hard lately, i noticed my car smelt like ass, maybe more than ass, smelt like mildew. So, i decided to check my trunk, and sure enough, the right and left sides of the trunk mat, were soaking wet. I cant find any leaks in the hatch and i dont know where else to look? Do you guys think it could be anywhere else? Im so , I think im just gonna go hose it off untill i find it dripping somewhere.

Could be the seals behind the tail lights.

Yeah, i'll have to double check that, but i doubt it. Its a large amount of water accumulating, enough that i had to buy a glade car air freshener thing.

Heres what gets me, under my rear passenger seat specifically [and i think rear driver] is wet. You cant see it through the seat, but when the chicas are sitting back there for a while i always have to say sorry because their asses are wet / moist. Anyone know any specific areas to check??

Check the drain tubes from your moonroof. Those things tend to come lose and leave a LOT of water in your car.

Where are they located? [I'll look in the morning, don't wanna go search in the dark]

Take your seats out go get a car wash, with undercarrage wash and climb in the back and search for where the waters coming in from.

Whats more than likely happening is that the water is coming in from the seals behind the taillights and obviously collecting into the spare wheel well. when you stop the car at a stop light or whatever, the water shifts forward into the backseats and back floorboards. if i were you i would take a hot glue gun and use about ten glue sticks to seal the back of the lights. as for the carpet in the cab, use alot of towels. :irock:
