08 Saab 9-7x.
Have had a problem with water filling up the storage area in the trunk area for years when it rains or washing the truck. The water appears to be coming from somewhere around the trunk/trunk seal/window (I cannot figure out where exactly) but I figured it was from the seal around the license plate frame, although the amount of water coming in is kinda alarming.
- Fair enough - The liftgate was starting to rust, and I had anticipated replacing it anyways...
So, I REPLACED the entire rear liftgate with an exact replacement I have been storing in my garage for 7-8 years off a low mileage 9-7x. I mean, the liftgate is just in mint condition, really. EXCEPT I still have the leak and its filling my storage area![Bang-Head :Banghead: :Banghead:](/forums/smilies/Banghead.gif)
I think I have ruled out the liftgate itself for the most part, so what am I missing here?!
