Vauxhall Astra 2012 Part 2 | Water Leaking from grommet Video
In this second part of the video James demonstrates where the leaks are in the back of the car.
These grommets are a common point of ingress on Vauxhall Astra. We spray water over the back of the car and then using a flexible camera, we can look inside the box sections to see where the water is coming from.
The grommets will be replaced with fresh ones and sealed in properly.
He also explains the problems associated with leaks in cars, which are damp smells, mould and electrical issues.
In the next video, we will show you an additional leak we found on further inspection.
