When ever it rains badly for few days I have puddle in the boot around the spare wheel

I can't feel any wetness coming from anywhere around the boot. My washer doesn't work however this only happens when it rains so it can't be the washer as I never use it

Can you point me to the areas where its most likely leaking from and what to do ?

any help would be appreciated

thanks
 
Check the high level brake light.

I had trouble with condensation on my rear screen, I then noticed it in the light too. Turns out the seal on the light had lost the will to live and the water was seeping in.

Failing that check the boot lid is sitting flush when closed and that there is no tears in the boot seal.

Hope you get it sorted. Nothing worse than water ingress.
 
Check the rear light clusters, my old ones were full of water due to dodgy seals and can leak down into the boot!
