Tailgate filling with water!

Hi all, the tailgate on my 6 week old car is filling up with water. When i open the boot, I can hear the water sloshing inside and running down before it pours all over the parcel shelf and the boot. This can't be normal. Noticed moisture in the boot lid light clusters too now. Have booked it into Audi next week. Just wondered if anyone else has experienced this and whether it was resolved. Not planning to be fobbed off on this, but half expecting them to try. Cheers, A

Not come across this on C7 (yet!) but on the old C5 it was the rear washer pipe that came loose. Try the rear wash/wipe to see if it works.

Will try that, not sure I've had reason to use it so far. I don't think the water getting in is washer fluid though, based on what is coming out.

Maybe missing grommet or similar from factory?
