umm..water in trunk after deadening lid?

[BeAlLsTaR13 10+ year member]

Do you play your subs during the car wash?

no, i dont lol

and i took off some more deadener around the edges close to the front of the trunk... this time there wasnt AS MUCH so i took more off around the edges and tightened the bolts some more to see if that does anything

I mean like trunk wide open watching the water run down the track

and ill try that, ill update sometime again tonight.

get in your trunk and have someone spray it down with a hose from the outside

see where the water's coming in

That's the classic diagnostic technique - done it a few times myslef.

Make sure the weather seal gasket isn't cracked or nicked and be sure it is seated properly. Doesn't take much to make faulty seal.

The weather stripping should be the same as it was before I even deafened cuz I never touched that part

What about putting some of the silicon treatment on the trunk gasket? Sadly, subs in the trunk do weird things to cause leaks... usually from the bolts holding the trunk on OR the spoiler, but they do cause all kinds of weird leaks on certain vehicles. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Should be isn't is //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif It's easy to foul it up when working in the trunk.

Use a glass of water to see where leak is dont use the hose, things will just get more wet.

and I did use a glass..after I took some more deadener off I did it and layed in the trunk an there was just a little trickle now and not as much as before..before it would be soaked so now it's just a little I gotta check it when it dries

from when i was in the trunk and what i saw.. it happened just about almost in the middle of the trunk lid

when i was in the trunk i took my light and looked all around and made sure there was no deadening touching the weather stripping, its about 2inches away from it now

dry your truck out, spray it with a hose, see where the water is coming in from.
