Anyone every had a leaky trunk here? 01 cl and the right hand side of my trunk gets wet when it rains hard.

I checked the seal and there is a tiny hole but it is on the left hand side of my trunk.

thanks,
Craig.

Bump!

I have the same leak on the right hand side of the trunk (rain water accumulates where the tools live in that plastic housing).

I did a search on this issue and there is at least one other post, but it doesn't appear that folks have definitively figured out what's going on. I suspect that there could be multiple causes for any given car.

I don't think my problem is due to the back window as there is no evidence of water any where around there. There's water on the metal on the opposite where the whether stripping is around the right side of the trunk opening. It almost seems like a metal seem has opened a tiny bit because the whether stripping seems perfect and seems to be well sealed.

Any thoughts? Anyone have a leak from a metal seam?

I had a leak in my trunk because the metal seam split. However, the split likely occurred when 300+ pounds of ice + snow fell onto my car from the roof of my gf's house.

Another Bump!

Okay, I put silicon all over the seams along the side of the trunk, following the whether stripping. It's still wet right underneath there. The carpet on the parcel shelf seems to be dry... The whether stripping is in perfect condition... Where else could it be leaking from?

My car is at Acura of Auburn right now as we speak for that very complaint. They have finally nailed it down to the rear windshield and they are going to replace and reseal. Gotta love that acura care warranty.

My car was heavily vandalized before I bought it and the entire car was painted and every piece of glass replaced. Must have been an amateur glass company because I had the front windshield replaced for a wind noise 6 months ago.

Glad to hear that your is going to get fixed. My car has 102K miles on it, so I think I'm SOL on this one........ bummer.........
