Water leak in boot, spare wheel

[irishastraowner]

Hi

My Astra has a leak in the boot, where the spare wheel is. The boot itself is dry. But there is damp on the back seat and the passenger footwellis wet.

I have just taken it to my local Vauxhall Dealer, they did tests all day, could not find out where the leak was. They said they would need to take out the carpet, seats and take off the bumper to find out more. Would be 6 hours labour. Im picking the car up tomorrow. It would cost over £400 before any parts.

Any ideas?  Thanks

I had a water leak in the boot as well. I just had to drill a hole in the 2 grommets in the spare wheel-well to allow the pond, that had formed, to drain. This was 2 months ago.

However I notice that the driver foot-well and the foot-well behind the driver are both soaked. When I access the little compartment where the VIN number is, in the driver foot-well, there is alot of water there.

Surely the water is NOT making its way from the spare wheel foot-well to the backseat footwell(behind the driver) or the driver foot-well???

Any ideas how to dry out the foot-wells in the car??
