Condensation in boot of Cab--Now in right section !!

[scootlife]

Seem to be getting a lot of condensation in the boot. the car has been stood for a couple of months, but its made carpet go mouldy. Any suggestions to stop this? ive tried one of those small moisture absorbing boxes.

are you sure its condensation ? not a leak!....where is it parked?

Check the rubber seals, that's my best guess, where the vapour comes in from and then condenses.

Maybe a leak as pointed out as before, never know. Get more info and someone more knowledgeable on these things will come along.

My guess is, either a leak, or check the rubbers.

Hope it helps mate!!!!

Parked under a Car Port . I have been starting in quite regularly though and exhaust is near the gates so i wonder if the exhaust fumes may be causing any of this ?

is the car parked by chance facing down a slight incline? if so it could be water running into the channel around the boot lid, then over flowing into the boot.

this happens on mine, if its facing downhill watter fills the channel and the boot gets condensation in it. if i park it facing uphill it doesnt happen!

Mine used to do this and found it to be the rear light surrounding gaskets, now better after they were replaced

at the moment its parked on the flat..

if you clear the drain hole the water will drain away ....that's what its there for...its just behind the rear wheels and its usually blocked!

just on the passenger side i take it ?

[DaveD]

never really looked on the other side
