  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

My G80 Sport Sedan's trunk has a large amount of water in the spare tire well, after a recent rain. it hasn't drained for several days. I think the culprit is the California Pop Top, which may have left the trunk a bit ajar after routing the top's cords around the trunk.
I would have thought the trunk would drain, but it didn't. Can anyone assure me that I can find a drain plug somewhere? Crawling under the car to investigate is difficult for this ageing bod.
Thanks for any advice!
 
Solved. I removed the spare, and found, accessible in the trunk, a large rubber plug in the center, towards the front, and a smaller one on the driver side. Removed them and the trunk drained.

I use a Cal pop top, not on a G70, but on a convertible and never had any issues. I run the cord around the trunk seam, fold the excess up neatly, pop the trunk two inches and toss the cord in and shut it while holding the slip knob outside the edge of the trunk. I love the pop top and will probably get one whenever I get a G70 later on the year.
