How to fix the trunk full of water in a Peugeot 307

Model: Peugeot 307 MK 1 - Years: 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009

Video tutorial

Let's see how on this Peugeot 307, under the trunk cover and under the spare wheel, a large amount of water has accumulated. The first thing the YouTuber looked at were the seals around the tailgate, but they were fine, so he checked the rear lights, but even the seal of the lights was fine.

Then the rear window? Nothing, not even that. The culprit was the seal of the trunk lock, and to change it we have to remove the plastic partitions inside the trunk, held in place by clips.

Now comes the difficult part, because inside the plastic base there are clips that are difficult to reach, perhaps only with a mirror, and using a special spatula. The lock must then be removed from the wheel arch, there is no other method, and once the YouTuber has the component in hand, we see that the seal is actually destroyed.

Changing the seal is not difficult, just one that we can get at any hardware store. The difficult part now will be to reposition the lock in its place, and we will have to follow the path we took to remove it, but in reverse.

Then we put the partition back in place. In the meantime, we will have dried the compartment well so we can put back the spare wheel and the floor panel.

This value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display. If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
