So if I've sealed the leak . Do I just have to wait for it all the dribble out ?
Or wheres it getting in to the secret passage ??

yes! I spent quite some time going around a roundabout trying to empty it as thats when it pops out. It wont fill up provided you've stopped the leak. Hence I suggested removing the trim is the best way to ensure you can see that its drying up...

I have a leak in the left storage well, only after it rains not when washing car. Had good advice on here and seems to be the same as you have. But didn’t have time to take it all apart so I have used gorilla tape over all the gaps and screws on the left hand side to see what happens. Not had any rain for 2 weeks so don’t know. If it still comes in it will be from somewhere else.
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.

Did you re-mount the cluster correctly, aka pulling the cluster's seal manually into the trunk?
