Check the boot seal and also check the headlining to see if is the aerial. Then report back!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1 Litre Screamer Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 thanks again - No sunroof and no hole (plus it takes on water whilst parked in heavy rain, not drivenyou need to get inside and have someone ruun a hose over the car, unless your in the ban area! use a bucket if you are. Look for water coming in through the rear side window and the door seal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
