Damn Vancouver Weather - Leaking Car (Help!)

Where the heck do you work, John?!?  Always fixing leaks???  Or is that your main hobby?  heheh.   :twisted:

I'm gonna wait till it warms up a bit more before lugging out the old hose to do that fanning thing that you guys suggested with the water... but today I removed the plastic panels under the hatch, and poured water from a bucket onto the outside of the hatch and onto the wing, etc, both slowly and quickly,  (while the hatch was closed and while it was open at various angles) to try and spot a leak from the inside... I didn't see ANY leaks at all!  WTF??  I've only noticed it "leak" once... it couldn't have been my bad eye-sight, could it?!?  Or maybe I have to do it with the garden hose before I see any leaks??
