Leaking washer fluid, removal of side boot trim...

Post by Pete1989 »

Hi
Got a leak in the rear washer fluid. Thought it was in the tailgate first took that off and it was totally dry and as it should be.
Looked down the left side and found a puddle of fluid behind the side carpet. The connection under the seat belt wheel is fine, it appears to be coming from where the pipe starts to up the rear pillar.

Had a quick look in the dark and I can see one torx screw holding the trim on i need to remove. Any others hidden and any tips for how to remove it?
Thanks.

Its ok, I found the leak in the rubber going form the rear of the car into the boot itself. Tube had completely snapped for some reason. Found some that was small enough to fit inside, sealed over the outside with silicone and I'll cover it with tape in the morning once its dried.
