O.K so I wash my car today and I go in my trunk afterwards to get my toolbox, well I find a puddle of water in my trunk. All my seals are fine and all the carpeting was dry, there was a bottle of water in the trunk but it seems like way to much water to be a leaking bottle. So what do you guys think???

Dog had to pee while you were washing the car?


Have the GF or someone hose the back of the car while you lay inside the closed trunk with a flashlight. Look for how water is getting in.

Good luck.

Just make sure you haven't done anything to upset her in the past few days..

She might not open it.

haha thats great advice! Just remember to take the remote with you if you have keyless trunk release. Can't trust women like that...

I'll have to look into that too, I went to check the tire pressure in my spare back in Jan, and found about 4" of water flooding the spare tire well. I had been totally oblivious to the fact I was driving around with a miniature swimming pool in my trunk.
