Found Water Leek In Boot

[rsgra]

hi all. i have found out how the water is getting into the boot. before i washed the car yesterday i took the boot side linings out plus the boot slam plastic cover. washed the car then i jumped in the boot whilst the wife hosed the car down. low and behold it was getting past the boot seal. do you think lexus would change it free of charge with so many other is200 doing the same the car is 2000 w reg and never had a prang

i doubt it very much because of the age, but give it a go you never know.

let us know the cost of a new seal also if u get a chance

A water leek? How do you grow one of those???

it's like a regular leek, but grows in water and has a hint of a rice taste, it is grown in vast paddy fields, but better known as taffy fields....

my IS leaks water into the boot but is parked downhill on a very steep hill, water pools in between the boot seal and the rear wing. i have two options, don' t park on a hill, or remove the drainage plugs.....so until i get a garage built ...plugs it is ...

left/right side also near the slam panel. the rubber seal looks ok until you put it at the side of the new one the new one is roughly 5mm higher the old one had lost its shape on the curves of the boot lip
