    Default Water ingression problem

    Hi all. Im having trouble with water getting in somewhere in the vboot area. Every so often I have to take the spare wheel out and remove an inch of water from the bottom of the spare wheel well. Am I right in thinking its coming in through the rear quarterlight windows ? The carpet is getting a tad mouldy and it seems like the inside sides of the boot are damp

    Could be any number of places unfortunately,but that's a good place to start,hope its not comin in through the aerial base,then you'll need to drop the roof lining bt the rear to gain access
