it rained pretty hard today and when it finished i went to get my bag out of the trunk and i noticed that on the drivers side all the way where the jack is there is a lot of water collecter right where the electrical wires run. below the antena motor. anyone have this issue? any help would be great. its a 97 SC300

theres a couple of drain tubes right there that take the water outside the car...make sure they go where theyre supposed to

Here's my three thoughts, shooting from the hip on this one.

1. Water is getting in through the antenna...maybe a seal is shot, or the weather stripping around the deck-lid is bad in that spot?

2. There is a little drain hose that comes out of the bottom of the antenna motor, and goes into a hole in the trunk floor to "out-let" the water. Maybe the hose is not connected and water is coming in?

3. There is a huge hole in the bottom of the trunk or wheel well that is letting water in?

Check everything....let us know what you find so we can all check for preventative sake.

I had that problem before. it was #2 like neuro stated above. There are drain hoses on both sides of your trunk that lead to the bottom of the car and go through the air boxes to the outside of the car. I took off the air boxes to replace my bumper and waited to put em in. It rained and one of the boxes fell outta place. I think that hose might've been accidently pulled up out of there somehow. If not its one of the other two as stated above.

i just took a look at it and i had my brother sit inside the trunk while i sprayed the whole car, by the antenna and tail light and trunk mostly. anyways what he saw was that the two tubes the one coming from the antenna and the one that connects to some kind of black box(whatever that is) do not leak a single drop but it leeks where two body parts are connected right from a little screw right behind the drivers side taillight where the bumber edge connects but from the inside of the trunk. anyways i think i need to put some caucking in there to seal it. or what else can i do?

no more leak, it was actually leaking from where the bumper and the body attach to each other, anyways to make a long story short it was a relly small hole between the two panals and it leaked in overtime, b/c i did not check that for a long time.
