Leak in boot lid
After a week of rain in Melbourne, I've opened the boot to my VY SS and out pours a heap of water. Has anyone had this problem or know of this problem?
I had this problem with my VX, they were notorious for leaking from the garnish, but the VY has no garnish.
wattya mean by pours out? like water runs into the boot when yu open the bootlid or theres water in there already? and have yu got a wing on it?
Sorry, the water is in the boot lid already, it runs out into the boot when I ope nthe boot. Yes I do have a wing - should there be a rubber seal between the wing and the boot lid?
:):):)
so their is no actual water in the boot itself

yeh there should be some from of seal between yur wing and the lid but still not followin on where the water is sorry
In the boot lid cavity - between the outer skin and the frame is the best way I can desbribe it
VT V6 wanting 300RWHP
^^That describes it perfectly, if they don't get where it's coming out from now, I'd just give up hehe
In my VT there is two drain hole that are not visible as they have been puttied up (not sure why) which allows the water to flow through and not build up/fall out when you open it.
ohhhhhkay now i c sorry, just couldnt picture it... yeh as far as i would know id try sealing the spoiler to yur lid again mate or check the weather rubber underneath the rear window that seals the boot.... i couldnt imagine it could possibly be gettin in there anywhere else
Yeah I've had a quick look and it looks like the rubber seal between the spoiler and the boot lid has been eaten away - can you buy these rubber seals on their own?
not sure bout the seals aye but ive jus got a small bead of silicone around the base of the spoiler around the holes and ive never had a problem, really any sealing type product would do
Cheers I might give that a try
