Clio Phase 1, Damp in boot.

[L5NTN]

Hi guys.

Have noticed a little water under the carpet in the boot and under the rear seat of my 2000 clio. I have looked but am unsure exactly where this could be coming in.

Does anyone have any info where this could be getting in or if there are any common faults?

thanks in advance

Rich

I had this recently myself and cured it with a new boot rubber. Got one off here from someone breaking for a tenner.

Other causes are apparently the rear lights or the little black bungs. If in doubt clear the boot and try the talc trick

It'll be the boot rubber as said or the rubbers on the bulb clusters.

if its under rear seat mainly it can be rear quarter glass seals as well, mine does this and I know its coming in there, they fold in on themselves under the base of the windows

I sometimes find its been damp in the left corner of the boot and under the rear seat. But it's not all the time. Even with the wet weather we had this summer it's stayed dry. No idea how it's getting in.

I also found it helped moving the join in the seal so it was by the catch guess the boots a bit tighter there. Might be worth try if you get new seal
