Why are my seats getting wet?
I'm having condensation trouble with my 1997 Citroen Saxo. Under the rear passenger seats the foam cushion is soaking wet. I don't know why it is happening but it is only since beginning of January, also a slight bit of moisture along the metal walls inside the boot. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Our answer:
Hi Shakarah,
That sounds to me rather more like a leak than just condensation. Either way, it’s a rubber seal that is most likely to blame. If it’s happening mostly in the back, then the boot seal is the most likely culprit. It’ll probably need replacing. If your car has a sunroof then that’s another likely culprit. Have you checked under the front carpets? If there’s moisture getting in there then the most likely areas to check are the windscreen surrounds or the heater matrix.
