I have an 88 crx si that has been leaking since I got it. After heavy rain it will puddle up in the hatch behind the passenger seat and the driver side floor will be wet. I usually see some water dripping from the hatch shock, but I'm not too sure where it's coming in at. Anyone know any common places where crx's usually leak or have fixed these problems before? Any help would be appreciated.

Reps will be given for help =D

I don't think it's that simple. A lot of CRXs seem to have some mystery leaks. I've heard people mention drains coming from the sunroof to the back and then a leak near the firewall is common, I was just trying to see if someone out there has actually fixed it.

tracking a leak is never easy, im just saying, a 22 year old car will leak. it's time to start replacing all the weather strips. that'll be the first thing i would start doing

:no:.... A good why to try and find a water leak, is to just get in your car and have someone spray it down hard with a water hose. Does it have a sunroof, cause those have drains that get cloged up a lot of the time... ^ But like Barefoot said its just old its time to start replacing....
