...arrow on one of the photos shows where it is when you are inside the van and where it is on the outside of the van.
The cause of the wateringress is the rear quarter panel pressure vents. The perimeter seal on the pressure vents is not good enough and rain water seeps behind it. When the...
Update…… Stripped the defective part and it has suffered wateringress! Needless to say I think it is a very poor design without any form of water resistant seals!
That's awful. But also why are the battery terminals rusty and the exposed copper oxidised so much? Do you have some wateringress/severe damp going on that might be a seperate issue?
...door is diverted into the cab from around the speaker. There’s a post about that somewhere on here - creating a waterproof ‘flap’ behind the speaker (using dodomat) was the suggested solution I think..

I have installed 2 lots of these units into my T6 and they have both failed due to wateringress! lucky THQ have sent me a FOC replacement but I don’t want to fit them until I can resolve the issue. I am thinking the water is coming in from the cover above the light units (barn doors)? I don’t...

...it out, but honestly no idea same as why some bright spark decided to slice the middle door seal with a Stanley knife either, all causing wateringress to a point, I did pressure wash the van last week and I thought the pw might have been too much but since found out why I'm getting water in.
The brake lights from THQ have a foam adhesive gasket on the back of them that the OEM ones didn’t. They sit slightly proud due to that but still look good. The gasket can’t be a bad thing in my mind and will stop wateringress.
I've removed an old partition from my van and been left with a number of screw holes like these, before I do any carpet lining I need to do something about them but not really sure what. I don't want to see them and I don't want any wateringress or rust, any suggestions?
...back and they weren’t done.
Mechanic wanted my permission to cut the cover at the base of the van as he stated it’s designed to stop wateringress to some mechanical components and cutting into it to fit side bars, could let water in.
