Hi Guys


I've just picked up my Z4 Coupe this weekend, it was raining on the way home and i've noticed today when looking in the boot, the bottom carpet (especially the panel that covers the battery) is soaked, i've taken it out to dry out, but i was wondering if this is a common problem? My car's under warranty so if it's the seals i can get them swapped. i've tried searching but couldn't find any topics on this, anyone had this and found a solution?



thanks

could it be from a valet ?
not heard of water in coupe boot carpets ? more a roadster thing :poke:
 
haven't had this problem either check with cleaners and check entry points into the boot to be sure. any break in the rubber seals around the bottom of the window etc?
 
Was it bought from a BMW dealer or an independent, and what 'warranty' has it got?

Possibly a valet monkey too eager with the pressure washer near to the rear lights, and forced some water past the seals - or they've not had the boot closed properly!

If it stays damp, or gets more damp then it's back to the dealers - although I'm sure trim & seals are not covered under the warranty - so it's up to the dealer.

Never had any dampness issues in my coupé - except for the female passengers :P

Get it back to them straight away, if only to make them aware. If you then monitor for a week or so fair enough but gives them less room to wriggle out in my opinion if the problem doesn't go away.

rubbish. sorry to hear that. hopefully it will be sorted....remember nothing handles quite like a rental car...

yeah i hope they get it sorted, they're looking at it as priority tomorrow. my last car was a 12 year old S2000, never had a problem, this car is a 56 plate with 30k on the clock and it's broke down in less than a week!
