Default Water go into the trunk.....

It's pouring rain today, and no I didn't leave the trunk open.
When I put back the spare and ready to go home, I found out the trunk (where the spare tires is) is flooded with water around 3 inches deep! Anyone have clue where those water coming from? I am sure it's not a leak from above, cuz my trunk carpets are dry.

it may not help - but i had a BIG leak problem in my old accord, found out it was through the tail-lights - best bet is to drop the back seat (get in)and (have a buddy) soak the trunk area to see (hopefully) where it is coming from - it could be coming from the sides or somethin' sounds odd cause trunk carpet was not wet

My taillight gaskets went and wrecked my subwoofer enclosure which sat in the spare tire well. 33503-ST7-AO1 is the part number. They're about $29 a piece.

If it's the tail-light gasket problem, then it's a free warranty item (granted your under 4yr/50kmiles). I had it done on my Civic. The only thing is if your taillight is leaking, then you should see a condensation inside the lenses.
