i checked tonight to see if the water has got into the handle again after all of the rain we've had lately,its still dry. I'm still interested as how the water originally got in there.  :rolleyes:  Brian reported the same problem and I'm interested to know if his handle got water in it again.  :idea:

Mine still has a watery sound coming from the depths, I had a look and came to the conclusion that the water is inside the tailgate garnish (which houses the soft touch button) and that it might be more likely to break if you opened it up more than anything else :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

One for the dealer if I ever gain the courage to return my baby to the place that scratched her last time :rolleyes:

Make that 3 members with this issue. I'll get it checked out at the next service I think. I only noticed after the last heavy rain deluge a few weeks ago. I've just checked and no sloshing, but I wonder if it drained out eventually or was it from evaporation. Either way I'll be hosing the back area with water before I take it in to prove my point.
