wet wet wet

Seems the T6 are a nightmare with water ingress!

I've had problems from the start B & C posts near side. B post damp at bottom. C post soaking from halfway down. Rear hatch OS also gets wet!
Copious reading of T6 forums has found this fault common! 
So easy option: possible water ingress because of lining carpet going under the rubber seals and wicking thru! 

Removed the os part of seal from the rear hatch, trimmed cloth back refitted seal. Looks like a result last few days lots of rain. The lining has not got wetter in fact it's seems to be drying out! 

Checked this afternoon all most dry!

So onto the C post! I'd removed the inspection panel above rear seat belt mount removed insulation. Damp not wet but the lining cloth was drenched. So round two, removed the sliding door rubber on the right as you look in the lining completely soaked as said, trimmed the excess off squeezed he seal closed then refitted. 
Time to sit back and wait for next downpour .............fingers crossed!
