A few days ago I drove my recently acquired A2 in the rain and now find I have the dreaded water in the boot floor.
Slightly disappointing as a replacement for my previous sublime S4, I hope I haven't actually bought a Trabant with Audi badges
Using the search function on this excellent forum, I now understand the rear bumper needs to removed to see where the water is actually coming in.
I found this thread (thanks Robert ) which goes through a bumper removal.

I wondered if anyone else who had done this could clarify a couple of points please;
After the rear wheels and arch liners are removed, can you access all of the bumper screws from underneath or do you need to take out the inner boot floor moulding?
Secondly, Robert mentions swinging the bumper round, I would have thought it would have been easier to pull it straight off and way for access?
I would appreciate relevent tips from anyone who has had the pleasure of removing their bumper.
Cheers
