Dave Haggas Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 As above.When the tailgate is raised,water drips from the forward edge of the plastic cover (the one that covers the underside of the tailgate).Bloody annoying.Can only be the rear window seal? Has anyone else had/having this mare of a problem? Is it possible to remove the rear window and reseal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Could be water getting in through the wing fixing holes ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a look around the fixings ,but looked ok.Just thought it could be a rear window washer jet issue?Pos split pipe?Only happens when it has rained though(SEE,I AM DELUDED.....)

squiffy Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 i think mine leaks through the mounts for the spoiler since i fitted the trd wing. thats another job for the weekend:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blitz supra Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Could be water getting in through the wing fixing holes ? I agree, if you have a non standard spoiler on, chances are it had no sealer put around the studs. You only need a small ring of sealer around the studs/ bolt hole, Don't plaster the whole mating face with it or you'll have a real nightmare should you wish to put the std spolier back on Also check the Tailgate drain holes are unblocked, You could always take the trim off sit in the back and get someone to spray the tailgate with a hose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
