Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

have just opened my front boot to find that i have some water ingress on the floor of the boot. i have towel dried the best i can but unsure where the water has come from, anyone heard of this before?
I did a search and a thread came up on Plant 9 but was not concluded.
my car is Cayman Gen II.
thanks in advance
The water can come in from a bad weather seal around the trunk opening; a mis-positioned front trunk lid; possibly backed up water drains under the front trunk lid and plastic panels; a leaking windshield washer tank or hose system; or if someone has been at the car and removed any rubber plugs (if there are any) that are in the front trunk compartment. Some of the above can arise from a car that has been in an accident and had a poor repair job. The front trunk lid being mis-positioned for instance, or the rubber plugs missing for instance.
thanks Rockster, I've had the car for 6 months. In that time I'm sure that its rained quite hard but have not seen any water in that area before, so not sure what is going on...
will have to wait for very dry day and get the hose pipe on the front of the car.
anyone else's input/2p worth will be much appreciated.
well i think i have water still coming in, so will need to try and figure out where its coming from. Anyone got and any ideas where or what sort of test i can carry out?
thanks everyone
well i had a look in to the front boot leaking last weekend. removed the liner to dry it out and remove the scuttle plastic panels to see if any drain holes where blocked by pouring water over the windscreen & bonnet. No water appeared. Well like the rest of the UK, its been raining nearly all week, so had another look today.
well great news, no water in there! but i that i had a leak. thanks for everyones input
