I had a bit of water collecting in my '95s trunk too, kept draining it through the plugs. I had assumed it was just a bad seal until I had it the body shop for a fix on the bumper.
They found that water was coming in around the spoiler holes, it was rusted way more than I ever imagined. I had assumed it was just a little rust bubbling up, but in reality it was rotting out pretty bad. They sanded/fixed up the spots and put a couple pieces of hard plastic between the spoiler and trunk deck, no leaks now. It looks a little wierd on close examination but is a fine fix until I find a replacement.
So if you have a spoiler check it out. I would be shame to let the rust spread on the trunk lid or start forming in the trunk from sitting water.

 

No leaks in my 98, all original seals are still fine.

 

The moron that installed my wing didnt do it right. So it rusted and opened a hole. Look out for that

 

For All those with damp trunks, Pull out your Spare and check the point directly under the 'hold-down screw' of the spare. Mine had been tightened down to hold a mini-spare and actually punctured the bottom of the trunk. . . it's just coated with some sort of undercoating. Maybe the rod once was threaded into the floorpan. Anyways, sealing that and drying the well has cured that problem. Mine used to be like a sauna if it sat in the sun a while, Now it's OK.

 

Like some have said the water in the trunk can be drained by removing a gasket under the spare. I had water collecting in my trunk after heavy rains. I tracked it down to a poor seal between the rubber strip that sits on a metal edge all the way around the trunk. So, I used black silicone sealant around the entire perimeter, between the rubber strip and the metal edge. I've been leak free since.

 

My 96 had a leak, the cause ended up being the weatherstrip even though it was insatalled correctly and looked ok. No leaks since I installed a new weatherstrip.

 

Thanks your post really helped me cuz mine is doing the same thing and i couldnt figure out what it was.

 

Its cool and all to say thanks. But NOT on a 2 year old post man, come on, dont bump way old threads

 

I dont know about leaks but my 95 seems to fog up quick also

 

 

Mine leaks also in the trunk but not much. Didnt know til my speaker box started swelling in one spot.

 

In the winter I have suspected my sun roof drains too, as it smells funny after a lot of rain, and I've left it outside. I need to check those before the monsoon comes next month. With the windows fogging, did you check for a bad heater core, is it smelling like antifreeze at all ?

 

Sorry to bring up an old thread but I have a wet passenger carpet and believe the evap drain is my issue. How do I locate this hose to see if that's the issue. Please help! Suggestions to clear it out?
Thanks! Tom

 

The evaporator drain tube sticks out of the firewall on the passenger side. It is several inches above the subframe. It was dripping on me when I loosened the right bank upstream O2 sensor yesterday.

EDIT:

If you stick your head deep in back of the glove box you can see the drain tube with a flashlight.

 

ATTN all people whos spoilers are not sealed and leak water in: get a couple of these things

Ive got water that gets under my spare some how, no leaks from the top which is wierd

 

i have this same issue to, except my car got in slammed the rear by a mechanic that had started drinking early after comming off of work at 5...x_x

areas to check:
- all 4 tail light housings (make sure they are watertight, if not use some black sealent or RTV
-trunk lock key area (check and see if its fixed or if it turns)
- antenna mount (pull back the pannel and see if any condensation is commin' thru it)
- spare tirewell (idk if nissan did this or my car is just diff, but on some tirewells theres pop out dranage plugs, check and see if they are there)

and if your car does have a sunroof, check and see if the rubber seal is still intact.

hope this helps

 

Whenever it pours out, I'll pop open my trunk and find little puddles more in the rear near the hinges... Was wondering same thing

 

No leaks for me

 

just a bit of info for u guys that have water in ur trunk i chased the same problem turned out to be the seal on the tail lights when it would rain it would seap in

 

I tried this and redid mine withsilicone and the leak still exists. I just removed the plugs under the spare until I get more time to track this problem down.

 

i had a leak in my trunk, but the main culprit was the rubber strip across the top of the trunk line, it wasn't sitting right. but lo and behold i went for a car wash and had a wet spot towards the right side of the trunk(passenger side) will look deeper into it

 

No leaks here

 

Same here. That would be just more crap added to a long list of thing currently being fixed lol lol

 

Me and my two brothers 4th gens all have no leaks in the trunk area, but my roomate's 4th gen on the other hand, when he bought it, his trunk was full of water, still cant find where its coming from.
