need to spend abit of time weather proofing the tuscan as it lives outside, after the recent down pour the passenger footwell is soaked, im pretty sure this is the heater duct inlet not sealed against the bulkhead.

what are the other general water ingress points please? while im there might aswell do the whole car.

also whats the reason for the boot leaking?

thanks

Try this link as it covers all of my water issues, although not the boot or the heater.

I had water in my boot when I first got the car.

After a lot of testing, I discovered that the water was leaking from the rear lights, as they were not properly sealed...

Solved the problem with black silicone sealant and the boot is now waterproof!!

Hi folks, after a bit of leak assistance. I've followed the links but can't find an answer for the following.

1) N/S door leaking via the flat fin like seal- are these replaceable?
2) Boot leaking via various gaps in the seal, new seal fitted but now boot won't shut- is there any adjustment in the catch mechanism?

Any pointers much appreciated.

Thanks Andrew
