bought the car from the Hyundai main dealer no more than a year,found the water leak into the boot area during the raining day,had sent back to the Hyundai dealer ,after almost a day check that they cound not found the fault and I've asked to pay for the service.:(:(any idea??

Find the leak yourself and take it back with a request for it to be fixed and your money back.

Do M3's and Toyota's and Golfs ever leak?

Can you guarantee the water wasn't there when you bought it, and isn't from some kind of spill, or from condensation or something? Take a pressure washer to it yourself and see where the water's getting in? Dry up the water, and see if it happens again? How long is the guarantee they provided?

Get the boot completely dry,take out everything in it including any carpet.Get a bottle of talcum powder and sprinkle it all over sides ,front and rear of boot,then wait until rain or spray it with a hose.When you open the boot again if its leaking it will show the trace through the talcum and if its a seal will even point at the point of the leak.....

LOL! That was my first thought before I'd even opened the thread :rotfl:

Tell them not to compound their fault of selling you a car that leaks by not being able to fix their problem!

Just because they haven't found a leak doesn't mean there isn't one.

How much are they asking for?

Crabman

oldhand's talc powder is a great idea.
