Rear hatch area leaks!
So I believe I have sorted the more common tail light source leaks by new gaskets on the body and sealant. And have sealed the bolts forward where the bumper bolts up on the sides. Also sealed the gromet thats up on the upper tail gate surround. Just need to order a high stop light as mine is cracked and also letting water in there....
Problem is I still have a leak in through the left side ventilation flap which is down below the left bumper line where it attaches to the car I have attached a pic of it.
Water fills all the slats of that thing up and comes in. Couldnt replicate it on the drivers side one for some reason.
Does anyone know the part number to replace it or is it something I need to pull the bumper and look at to see why its allowing water through the flaps?
Has anyone else had this one and how did you sort it?
