#1: Water in car Author: gpvecchi, Location: ItalyPosted: Sun Nov 24, 2013 8:22 am ---- Hi, with the first rainy days in Italy, I found that my car fills up with water; I was ashtonished not to find fishes in all that water!
In particular, I got it in trunk and A LOT (1 or 2 litres) under rear seats.
Is someone experienced in this?
Thanks!

Depending on where the aerial is check that is well sealed.
But as above it's more than likely the boot rubber.

If you notice, all the water (a lot) coming down from roof along the boot gasket goes exactly over tail light. I reinforced the light gasket and add another on that black flap (that probably was engineered for that purpose, but that was unuseful without a gasket).
Checking in the next days, I'll report back soon!
P.S.: my car now smells like a wet dog...
