Wet boot

Apart from the roof drains being blocked where else does water get into the boot from.
The passenger side carpet trim over the arch is soaking esp in the pocket hole thing on that side. There is some evidence of water in the battery hole thing but the amp etc is not swimming it’s mor like heavy condensation.

My suspicion is roof drain. The light on the boot is not broken so I don’t think it’s getting in that way. The car is parked on a slope arse down most of the time

I always park nose down, when I parked nose up, I got a wet boot.
When you look at the shape of the drains I can see why I think. I’ll deffo check out the drains first although I have no idea how I can get to them
 
Mine leaks through this screw hole. Nice puddle in that boot pocket after washing the car. Instant gasket has improved it but at the time I couldn't figure out how to get the trim piece off to get in there properly.

Went behind the rear bumper is another place water gets in.

Where abouts?
The vents are in the rear two corners. If I remember you can pull the carpet back and see them. Some were installed upside down and let in water. When I had my bumper off I took them both off and cleaned them plus put some silicone grease around the gaskets.

The gaskets around the lights also compress over time and let in water. Another place to check.
