DC5r water in the boot?

[dagher23q]

Hey guys,
Im having a bit of a problem, yesterday as i was driving i noticed water shaking in my boot, i had a look and found that water had somehow gotten into where my spare tyre is? It hasnt affected the actual boot though but i fear it might? I have a sub in the boot and im worried it might eventually get into the boot and cause damage.

I had this problem with my old dc5 (standard) but i had nothing in the boot so i didnt pay much attention

Is this common? should i ignore it or?

do you have water in the rear taillight lenses ?

[dagher23q]

no, just around my spare wheel, under the carpet

Personally I would look into it and see where its coming from, get a friend to wet the car with the hose and u sit in the car with the seats folded down and see if u can spot where its coming from

I am certain it is your taillight gaskets.

Had the same issue on my DC5.

They are a rubber foam which deteriorates over time.

Just go Clarke rubber and cut up your own gasket!

Yes it is worth changing because water is in your spare wheel space. No it is really easy to change, this is where u can purchase them from:
