Water In Boot


Fieldsie

Recommended Posts

Our 151/2 ft XC poptop is only two years old and ever since new we have had a continual problem of water getting in the front boot, even after quite light rain. I've had Sandra lying inside the boot whildt I spray it with the hose to find the problem, all to no avail. Have any other members got a similar problem to us and does anyone have any solutions?

My theory is the water gets into the boot door surround and if the drain holes are blocked with the sealing rubber it then drains into the boot whereas with the drain holes clear then it empties externally.

Hi Fieldsy,

We had the same problem with our 2002 XC 15-1/2ft. I solved it with a "D" shaped hollow rubber strip about 5mm or so wide. It has self adhesive on it, & I've stuck it directly on to the existing sealing rubber on the door. I bought it from Bunnings. So far it has been successful.

Happy Travelling,

Regards,

John
