Ayup, got a bit of a problem , lifted the floor panel in the back of the motor and where the toolkit ( jack etc ) in front of it in the Hollie it was wet through , just wondering if anyone's had the same happen .. Is it a new tailgate seal as the one that's on is not very pliable .. Oh yeah , when you lift the panel there is a plastic box attached to it what is that .. Ta in anticipation .. )

It's called a fish tank for good reason........

 

[GrumpyGel]

It was installed for owners of the K & KV6 models - so they always had some water to top it up with, but is shared on diesel models also.

Lol. Mine is bone dry, so that discounts that theory

 

[Epicuser]

Mine too. It affects early models. I think there was a modification to the later ones which dried out/prevented the fish tank from filling up.

Have a search.

Mine used to leak untill I refitted the door seal and adjusted the tailgate window...noow its also bone dry...duno which one fixed it though.

Covers every possibly gap/hole with silicon sealant which stopped it happening to mine.

Probably referring to the sub woofer.

It's what LR call a sub woofer. It's crap and often broken.

Can't comment on being crap, but yes, mine was broke.

See what I mean
Mine wasn't broken but the amp was. I fitted an amp that I had kicking about to try out the woofer. At 40Hz it was 10 DB down on the 50Hz sound pressure level. In the world of sub woofers, that is bad.
I fitted a better head unit then blew up the sub!! This gave me an excuse to fit a 10" sub in the cubby instead.
Now I have a proper back massage when required!

I could do with a back massage......

Not really into loud or basey music, never heard the sub, so I don't miss it. The HK system is fine with me, but I removed the Becker head unit and replaced with a Kenwood one which does DAB & Bluetooth.

My sub was extinct like a dodo.
