Gallon of water in my wheel well

[OfnaRcR4]

I have what looks like to be a gallon or so in my drivers side wheel well that is just chillin. It's not really draining. There is no hole from the tire side, just the two from the wing mounts. Is there something i can get to fix this? I want to fix it before it gets rusty.

BTW, i already searched for "water".

I dont recall for the supra, but on most cars, the panels have drain holes so water doesnt sit and cause rust. Check yours to see if the holes are blocked, and maybe make your own holes for draining.

Pull the plugs under the tire.
Then fix your seals.

But yeah, i have hatch seal leakage, but none of that gets in the wheel well.

I want to do something that stops it from filling or getting wet so drilling a drainhole is out of the question unless there is already one there.

Its from your taillights and sopiler seal methinks.

thats what happened to mine

Mine was leaking from the blinkers in the trim on the sides of the car. If thats where it's coming from take out your blinker put a little silicone on it and reinstall it.

I'm pretty sure there is a rubber grommet down there, possibly on the outside of the well. Either pull that, or unscrew the rear bumper cover support, and the water should come out of those holes.

I had water in both rear wells, as well as the driver side main support beam - I just found out why yesterday....grommets missing under the car FTL.

I just ordered a hatch seal and both taillight seals from toyota for $100 plus tax. Should get here by thurs. In the meanitme, i'll check the side markers and rubber grommet.

Oh that spot.
Use a siphon or a vacuum that can suck up water.

There is a drain hole! Look under the car in that area, and you should see it. Poke a screwdriver through from down there, and prepare to get wet.

WTF... this is crazy. You guys should not be giving advice. Drill a hole!?

There is a rubber plug at the lowest point (novel idea!) of that cavity. Just pop that out (goes out the bottom) and it will drain.

Yeah, i was def not going to drill a hole.

good. You would be suprised at what people post on here.....

drilling a hole in the body to fix a leaking gasket problem is NOT what you should do. haha.
