Re: Leak

Bucktha,
In all likelihood it is the gaskets around the tail
lamps; they dry rot and start disintegrating. I had
the same problem with my with my '87 325, and it was a
very simple (and cheap :) repair. Cost of the parts is
about $11 US per side from the stealer. Hope this
helps.

Hi guys,

I've got an '89 316i.
Opened the floor board of my boot to check the tire
pressure of my
spare
and found everything wet including the tire. (Very
very wet)

Took out the tire, dried it and did my best to dry the
boot.  Thought
that some of the bottles in which I keep water might
have spilled over.

A week later, same thing.  It's as wet as ever.

There's no obvious leak from the top because
everything above the
floorboard is not wet.

Could it be a crack in the bottom.  Any other
possibilities?

THanks in advance.

Regards
Seelan
