[Stanzaspeed]

how bad is the leak> where on the seal is it located? on my hatch i had a small leak caused by a cut in the seal so i just gooped it. if thats aas bad as yours is ypu should try tthyat. if not. automotive goop works pretty good :biglaugh:

 

[Suprastic]

mine leaks a bit to. Only 1 drip very sec. 1.5sec. so its not a big leak at all but it does drip from the same spot as yours.

mine does after a car wash as well like 5 drops every 3 seconds but when it rains it doesnt leak at all... wtf is dat... need some iodeas:1zhelp:

 

[Suprastic]

92turbo4life same deal here. weird how it comes from underneath the plastic cover though.

 

[Mr.PFloyd]

mine does it too. only when i open the thing up tho,

 

[malloynx]

seal the rear wiper, and if you have a spolier that needs to come off and be sealed as well. those are the only areas what can leak, if water pouring out when oyu lift the hatch.

check the seal around the glass, mine was leaking hella bad, then i caulked it with some clear silicon, and it solved the problem.

there's one more place that would put water where Nash has some.

right at the bottom of the hatch glass, there's a piece of molding. if that's any bit loose, or not sealed well, water will get in the hatch. that's my next project. once i do that, i'll be 100% leak free.

all of you guys that have this leak may want to look for water in your spare tire hole. mine leaks too from the same spot behind the plastic and a few days after i bought my car i go to take the spare out and theres like an inch and a half of water in there. now i know why the pervious owner kept it in the garage.

I get water in my spare tire well to. I also found a cracked weld in the water gutter/rail of the hatch which is probably causing the water in the tire well. The drip from the plastic on the hact only happend when the hatch is up.

you sir, are correct! haha. my bad

I just thought it was funny, I'm reading down the list, and see what i said rephrased and was like huh?

 

[NashMan]

Mine has been leaking for a while. so this time I've replaced the rubber seal around the hatch door, took the molding around the hatch glass off and ReGooped the Glass, Put new foam washers on the molding and screwed the molding tight to the glass, Changed the gaskets on the spoiler. I have left the plastic panel in the hatch door off to see if this guy is still leaking.

Washed the car and didn't notice any water coming out.

Havn't replaced the wiper seal yet. I guess if it still leaks, thats the next step.

okay so i had same problem with the hatch leaking but now i dont. there is a piece of trim at bottom of window and u can access it by removing the plastic trim on inside of hatch. it pops off. look for bolt studs sticking out of hatch along the window there are 4. remove them (8mm nuts) then push evenly on all four so to remove trim with out damagin it. u will notice on opposite side the 3 clips the retain the glass for the hatch. i put silicone sealer around those and also where the blots go. i think i put to much down but i will never notice because the trim will hide it. re install the trim and bolt it down snugly cuz plastic is brittle. and presto! watersealed! my hatch would leak around the plastic on inside when u open it and now it doesnt. any questions or comments PM me

I have quite a bit of water leaking in. I replaced the spoiler seals and the wiper gasket but no luck. I even removed my lower glass molding, cleaned it, siliconed it, and it still leaks. Next step is to buy new molding and foam washers.
