I keep getting a minor leak in my hatch right in the right and left side of where the center light ends. It is coming through the weather stripping but the hatch closes fine...

Any idea's?

 

new weather stripping

it could be leaking from another spot and running down the hatch, id check above where the leak is comming from also

 

Weatherstripping is original but the car is F'n mint so I know it's not that. I think it's just not line'n up or something...

 

That is near where the rear center tail lamps harness passes thru. Pull the center light out and check that sealing grommet. Pull it out, clean it and run a thin bead of clear silicone sealant around the opening and re-insert.

Also check the push in plastic nuts on each side of the tails where the black plastic covers are located. Under them is the push in nuts. Extract them and you will see a foam gasket that used to seal there. Remove it and run a thin bead of clear silicone sealant around each and re-insert.

Allow to dry and set.

then run a leak test. Close hatch, run steady water hose over hatch for 5 min, stop, raise hatch and inspect. Then report back your observations.


later

 

Thanks man
