This year I have a problem with my w203 Station Wagon with water fill on back sides. Tonight after some days of rain I found that my car have 0.5 lt of water on back of my car.

If any one have this problem with w203 Sw 2001, because I thought that water comes from top over from top roof that have Station wagon the carrier, i don't know

Sprinkle the whole area around the seals and above where the water sits with talcum powder then try to recreate the leak by spraying with a hose. The water will leave a track through the talc. You may need several goes to find it.

I thought that I found the way of water.
The back licence plate was place that take water and routed in locked system of back door.
And in baggage lock door place was the way that water pas inside the car.
