Leaks

My polo seems to be leaking either around the rear passanger window or door. It is obviously the seals but has this happened to anyone else and what has been done about it??

Does VW replace them or what.

Cheers

Do a search in this forum!! It's a problem i haven't heard for a couple of years but an existant problem, believe the posts also found answers to the leaks

It would be worth checking if its the rear wash wipe spray that is leaking as opposed to the door seal. This happened to me and is easily fixed.

Hope this helps,

Is that not solely in the boot?

Ok this is stating the bleedin obvious

but make sure your rear windows are fully wound up. In the past (not noticed it recently) they've wound down a mm or two - just enough to let water in.
