Water collection on trunk/boot lid during rain? Pic inside

[Philly_Sweden]

Hi.

Sorry for my crappy english but is anyone else having this problem?

I dont have any leaks and my car is almost never outside during rain but everytime it rains I always get a duckpond on my trunk/boot lid.

It irritates me and maby the rubberthingy around the window gets damaged cause of all the water?

I get it all the time (when it's wet of course), and my car is left outside in all weathers.

Never had any leaks or damp in the boot since I bought it almost 5 years/90k miles ago.

They all do it sir will be the BMW response,I keep a small squeegee type thing in the boot to clear it but when I fetch it out the water has miraculously disappeared.

Yep, opening the boot is the easiest way to get rid of it! But I agree it's a bit of a crap design.

In 12 months ownership my coupe was always garaged but whenever it was washed this really bothered me & mine did have to "sleep" outside i would have to park it on a slope in order for this not to happen , ,

should sort it

Pain in the bum when washing it. Just when you think you've dried it...

Buy a roadster; they don't suffer from this problem... :roll:

I'd rather have a little water collecting on my boot than in my roof motor....

Yep, erm design fault, but the rest of the coupe more than makes up for it

Need to get someone to make a carbon hatch that has a flush fitting

 

[Dangerous-Dave]

But why is it, no matter which way I park the car, it's always the drivers side ??

passenger side

passenger side

Same here!

I have even tried to adjust the hatch/lock to make it more even in hope for the rain to flow of the car without succes, always on the passenger side.

Edit: My passenger side = your drivers side

Is your boot lid on straight?

Is this another way of diagnosing broken spring?
Sorry to induce paranoia if this is the result
