hello , ive noticed it before but i cant figure out where it is coming from , when it rains heavily , i get a puddle of water build up behind the passenger rear light , i first thought it was the light not sealing properly , but i took the light off and re fitted it and all the seals are dry , any idea to what could be letting the water in ? , thanks

i have this i found the only place it could be coming from was where the petrol filler is just below tge actual cap is a hole but i havent investigated further my mate has it in both sides so it could be coming down from the roof plastics as with the front

You got a sunroof? There are rubber drain pipes behind both rear lights that people usually forgot to reseat properly, I've done it in the past.
