Honda Jazz leaking

My 2005 Honda Jazz has developed a leak in the spare wheel well and under the off side rear passenger seat. We have water tested the car with a hose and cannot find where the leak is coming from. The rubber seal around the hatch back door does not appear to be damaged in any way. Can anyone suggest anything?

Hmm, have you tried disassembling the interior trim panel around the rear off-side? I removed all the lower interior trim from the hatch area for fun once. Sadly I found some rust spots, which I had a body shop take care of for me.

That might help you locate the leak. Good luck!

Interesting, so it IS underneath the hatch area interior trim. Fortunately I haven't had any leaks of that sort so far...fingers crossed

it happen to me as well.. but i think this was happened after i had an accident about 2 years ago..

it starts leaking.. so, i find a spot where the repairmen did not notice that the seal from the factory had been removed.. so i seal that spot, it works, but just now, i notice that it still leaking.. but not like the firts time.. i'm really curious where did it came from..
