Don't worry this isn't another thread about why it's happening etc etc.
I have a 59 plate Grande Punto with a tailgate that suffers from the seemingly common leakage from the stop buffers. The car is booked in next Monday to get it checked out and rectified - if the dealer can't fix the problem is it OK for me to:
1. Remove boot trim and wax the panels to stop the water from attacking the metal
or
2. Silicone seal round the seams (I've water tested and it seems like it's coming from that area)
or both??
Without affecting my corrosion warranty of course as I intend to keep the car for as long as possible.
