Can anyone suggest how to find out where the water gets in to the short boot lid

 

every time it rains, nearly every day lately, I open the boot and water runs towards the top of the boot where the hinges are and gushes out between the lid and the interior trim

 

My car is a mark 2 2014 hatchback

So far 115 people have read this post plus me, but no replies! this means 116 Skoda drivers have no ideas how to solve the problem.

Rain is getting in to the double skin boot lid and when the boot is raised it pours out through the fabric covered boot interior trim.

any thoughts about drilling holes in the lower edge of the boot lid behind the chrome trim to allow the build up easy exit so when raising boot most of water has already drained???

If I raise the whole hatch as one the water pours out the top of the hatch between window surround and interior boot trim.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hi. Any chance you could make a video showing us the issue please? Sometimes a visual reference is more helpful to describe the issue and we can all see clearly where the hinges etc are.

My educated guess...    From experience on a Kodiaq...    The rear wiper seal between the arm and the glass (or similar - I'm not familiar with the Superb mk2 set up). 

thanks skomaz there is no rear wiper on a superb mark 2

 

Lee, I will try to video the opening of the boot and all the water dripping out from behind the felt covered interior trim this weekend, then figure out how to post the video thanks for the suggestion

If you can keep the video to under 50mb you should be able to to just insert in your post without any issues.

Alternatively pics would also be useful.

If you get stuck trying to upload any of them then feel free to message me on here for assistance 👍
