Hi just joined obviously and hope to get lots of information from the group about the cars on the good\bad points.

My 2006 Zafira 1.6 petrol is my 3rd Zaffy, It has had the recall work done and im happy with it in general, just a few niggling points with it being over 10yrs old as you would expect.

Water getting into the chassis past the rear light cluster and sloshing backwards and forwards etc  I though it was low fuel level at first running across a baffle, silly me.

Anyway i will post some stuff later.

Hi Terry....welcome to the Forum

I would be tempted to drill a small hole in the rear where the water is collecting and insert a grommet once you have put some corrosion protection on the bare metal....better to let the water drain out than sitting there.

Also, worth sealing the light unit gasket to stop any further water ingress. 
If it was me I would also fill the affected area with waxoyl or similar anti-corrosion wax treatment.

Good to have you onboard
