My westfalia high top is leaking water at the rear of the van.

I am getting lots of water in but cant fine the source of the leak.

is there anysign of impact damage or crazing or cracks , if not most lilely source is skylight seal to fibreglass or if only just above the tailgate then the bonding to the crossmemeber which is riveted water can find it's way through the rivets if it gets that far

A bit more info is needed here but my van had carpet on the rear hatch door and it protruded upwards when it was closed. This acted as a wick and in downpours it used pour in. I just trimmed the carpet and all was fine

My leak was a split tailgate seal along the top of the tailgate

Mine leaks too. After a downpou there is water along the seams in top corrners as you look in the back. I have resealed the entire roof and the sun roofs, but still there. I will get a new rear door seal and see what happens. What is crazing of the roof and how to rectify.
This problem has been posted here before and brickwerks but no one has posted a difinitive answer. Let's keep trying.

window rubbers was my problem when i had the high top.it seeped in unnoticed and over time was causing huge puddles in the front and rear of the roof(depending on which way round on the drive i was facing).i had a frozen lake in winter ..its not a problem now though as i changed it for a pop top
