beaks Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 Tricky one to explain, but after cleaning my car, there is always a bunch of water on the battery cover / screen wash cover area (circled in photo below)... (Photo was taken when I had more trim removed than normal!) I know there is a seal to protect the 'trunk' but does anyone else suffer with this? It's not a life changer to clean / dry the covers after a clean but there's often a little pool of water next to the battery as well - I know there are drain holes in there but hey, maybe it's just me being fussy! Any comments appreciated.. Ian B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep! 🤣 Mine is exactly the same - looking at the positioning of the rubber seal i have always assumed it's normal. In any case most of the water runs down behind the trim and down the drain holes. I always wipe over the trim with a microfibre towel and i mop the area around the battery and drain holes with smaller microfibres as there are a couple of slightly sunken areas where water pools.
