Water Leak In Rear Cargo Area

[INYOURCHAIR]

My leak was from the gas cap area.
I found it by hosing down different areas of the car.

I still have a small leak from somewhere I can't find. But after sealing that up I get much less water in.

I thought mine was from the LH qtr window as stated by previous owner but when I checked it out myself, I noticed the water sheeting down into the filler area. sure enough that's it. How did you go about sealing that one up so I can get a game plan?

Just bought some silicone sealant and slathered it around the edges.

There is also a gasket behind the filler. I did not replace it. Probably a dealer part. Or you could get some gasket maker.

I have the same problem in the drivers rear area ... water accumulates in the well under the trunk flap.
The leak at the gas cap area ... how'd you remedy that?

You can see my answer in the post right above your question.

I drilled a tiny hole in the bottom of the well to drain the water, and ignored the issue.
