Rear Hatch Leak
Rear Hatch Leak
I have a leak in the rear hatch, the upper glass area. Water is coming from behind the upper horizontal trim piece.
Water is dripping down onto the floor of the "trunk" area and then on to the battery box area.
I thought I had was that the water was entering via the rear spoiler mounting points, then exiting via the trim mountingn pionts - this is only a guess.
What are others experience with leaks in this area?
How is the upper rear hatch window glass trim piece removed without damage?
How is the rear spoiler removed? (to seal the mounting pionts)
Appreciate all your insight and experience
Thanks

My guess...and it is just a guess is that the 3rd brake light is what is leaking...just a few torix bolts..it will come right out..it uses a flimsy foam gasket to stay water tight...that or maybe the antenna...or the boot gasket...look around closely for the telltale signs of water penteration.
