Water inside rear wheelarch
Hi,

I've been having problems with foggy windows in my GLK. After opening the room on the right side in the trunk, I have noticed that water is accumulating there. This is the room in the wheelarch behind the taillight. The material in the bottom is soaked in water after a rainy day.

Any tips on where this might come from? The rear sunroof drains?

Clean out all the water then close it up and run a garden hose over each area carefully looking for the magic moment water shows up.

Best bet, move to LA. No water problem there in many years. Will solve fogging problem and water in the wheel well
