I have water in the boot of my Fiat Punto, underneath where the spare tyre kit is stored. I have just emptied over 5 litres of water out! I can't see where the water is getting in..any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Hi.
A common issue with the 199 bodystyle,

Normally either,

Failed seam sealant
Poorly refitted tail lights

My boy has a 2012 Punto 1.4 8valve which had this problem. It was leaking in past the seal behind the light unit.

Other people have mentioned this on Punto 199
One showed an ePER image of the missing seal parts 🙂

I've had 3 of these cars,

only 1 has leaked, None of them had seals..
The 1 that leaks has been butchered/abused, bulb holder broken etc

I have worked on the Body panel sealant in the last month, this seems to have helped 🤔
