audiofanaticz Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 the electronic trunk close-er thing is working.. and the seals seem in good shape.. so ?? yea. and if its not sucking the lid down tight you can take it off, then unscrew the motor on it, and turn the gears by hand a little bit, then put the motor back on it. depending which way you turn it, your trunk will either suck down more, or not as much. another thing I would check if your car has a sunroof/moonrood. If so there are little tubes that run down. There are 2 tubes that go down your a pillers ( one on each side) then another 2 more tubes that go down the rear of the car down the c pillers by the rear window, which normally go through your trunk and drain out someplace around the rear wheels. I had a problem with my trunk getting wet and that was the problem. one tube was out of the whole, and the other tube in the trunk had a bad seal. A tube of caulk fixed it up good.

roscoe1129 Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 I would also pull all of the carpet out and check the floor pan of the trunk just to be safe. there micht be a small hole in the wheel wells them self thats letting moisture in.

audiofanaticz Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 yea, there are "vents" through out your car, no matter the make or model. they are on the floor panels. They are to drain water and allow your car to breath. from my understanding they will drain any laying water out, and allow air to come in, but not water come in. But most of the time these get rusted and crack creating leaking problems. Id take pictures, but mine are all sound deadened over so.. but I may have a pic someplace.

ST33M Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 Go with the first one, the second is more for interior trimming. Make sure it matches what you are taking off tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
