Any ideas of getting it home without having to get a trailer. Was thinking of getting a space saver or a smaller diameter wheel and tyre and swapping them over to get it rolling.. What do people think?
Noccy_Mondy wrote: » FREAK!! :pac: What annoyed me more is that I couldn't for the life of me determine where the water was getting in, tried everywhere, dried it out and blasted the suspected areas with the power washer to see if water was coming in. Must have dried that boot mat about 20 times.....

Did a DIY job that took me about an hour, as Halfords sh*tty ratchet set is a waste of time, and it took me far too long to figure out how the bracket (that holds the battery in place) worked. Eventually got the battery out. Had the new one in the boot. Tried to open the boot but realised battery was disconnected. So reconnected old battery and still the boot wouldn't open. Eventually dragged the new battery through the back of the car by folding down the back seats. :rolleyes: Connected the new battery. Boot still won't open (either by pressing the button on the boot itself or using the key fob!). Can someone reassure me that this is a simple, minor, tiny issue, that's directly related to changing the battery, and not an actual problem that's going to cost me an arm and a leg to get looked at!? (Car's a 2006 Peugeot 407. Al the other locking works fine, and the boot itself has never given any trouble before). Due to the timing i'm assuming it has to be related to the battery change. I had the boot open and closed 2-3 times about 3-4 minutes before it suddenly stopped working (was giving the bonnet a wipe and took cloths from the boot, etc. then suddenly a couple of minute later it won't open). And I was so happy finally getting the battery into it..
