Moisture in boot

Post by Dave Smart » Mon Jul 19, 2004 12:44 pm

My '90 has a lot of moisture sitting up in the ceiling of the boot, which
dampens the carpet etc to the point where I don't want to put anything in
there.

The rubbers seem sound. Could the water be soaking down from the soft top
and what's the remedy?

Great list and site by the way, just joined and learning heaps.

Hi Dave
I found the rubber around the aerial had gone hard and cracked. This was
letting in a drop of two. Just enough to cause what you describe.

Dave Mine was doing the same, I actually found a lot of the moisture was
comming through the back window stiching,I just used some tent seam
sealer and when finished covered the dribbled bits with some black shoe
cream did the same on the roof seams as well , No leaks at all now;

Cheers jeff.
