ford focus 2011-2015 water in the boot. fixed and this is how

[@sandracarver6]

Thank you so much, going to show my husband. We might not have to sell our car!

[@RichardRitson]

Thanks so much for this mate, really helped me out when I found 3"of water in the spare wheel cavity

[@scottdormer5866]

That Tiger seal work was mint ! you are an artist ! Great video Baz

[@chrismorris8662]

Clear and precise as always baz

[@mattsilver8519]

Great video mate well done 👍

[@derekfleming3095]

An easier way is to just remove the plugs either side of the car, remove the sound ending foam
Leave the plugs out, any water that comes in will go straight back out, plus it will increase airflow to keep everything dry
Due to our miserable roads, the vents never stay sealed

[@toddalcock6879]

100% ... pull that sound deadening material out as thats where the water gets sucked up, leave the grommet out and so what if some rain water gets sucked up as you drive, it will drain straight back out and not soak into anything... 100% fixed for good

[@paulwoodburn4474]

Yep common as on these i always tiger seal around the bent too as they can releak

[@aledhughes1796]

I seem to have leak through the hydraulic hinge when u pull boot up? Ran water over and it trickles down but it’s pooling somewhere but dripping down have no idea how to fix

[@brianmoore47]

hello matey ive just done mine today seen videos before with similar to yours can i just ask do you put any boss white around the light holes or a rubber washer it seems an other spot water can get in & trickle down to boot well they dont seem to have a seal around light holes ? cheers brian

[@aledhughes1796]

Seems to be a plastic cover behind the wheel with a clip? How do I pull that off?

[@Theorangeman.]

I use a disco smoke machine inside with the blowers on an on recirculate. Works a treat to find leaks

[@bazmeredith]

There's loads of different ways, even use a thermo camera

[@Theorangeman.]

@@bazmeredith dont know that one

[@danielgreenbaum8875]

Good idea with smoke machine were do u feed wire from into car to smoke machine from mains ?

[@Theorangeman.]

@@danielgreenbaum8875 just put the machine in foot well an close the door with wires hanging out the door

[@cm4374]

Any rough idea how much a garage would charge for this job inc labour?

[@BlakeCDS]

I just pulled the foam out from the rubber bung underneath some amount of water came out

[@scotspie501douglas7]

baz your a star product knowledge but no chance joe blogs doing that job unless he sees this

[@ryanm9069]

Im from the states with the same last name lol crazy cause i never see it ever

[@kempy9584]

My 6 golfs do the same thing

[@garynewell6947]

i need this doing to my 2015 fucus estate ive got a swimming pool in my boot

[@theredbaron6936]

Hope you got it sorted mate. I had the same with my focus estate too. Apparently with estate's the water runs underneath the roof rails - behind the lights into the wheel well. I only noticed mine when my windows would mist up (and I always use the air conditioning) and I noticed a smell starting. It's a common issue with both the hatchbacks and estate's but seems the source of the leak is different. If memory serves I paid around £180 to have it sorted 👍

[@scotspie501douglas7]

great video for everyone years ago all boots leaked water ...lol what a job all fords are not what they used to be

[@tichyedge]

How much to fix a job like this ?

[@derekfleming3095]

DIY if you do it the quick way

[@robhaynes5465]

Could you not just take that rubber bung out altogether so it never fills up ?

[@toddalcock6879]

you need to also get that white material out or it will just keep sucking up water, but yes get the material out and leave the grommet out and you wont ever have to worry about the seals around the vents ever again
