Hi, I know of one owner (now moved on) who had this problem, I think he had to go to the main dealer for the gasket but had to wait as they were on back order...... best of luck.

Yes it was the seal round the spoiler leaking badly anyway it was a simple fix, put the spoiler into maintenance mode (ignition key in turned off, wiper arm in the on position),take off the spoiler cover on top of boot 4 screws, unscrew the spoiler from inside the boot enough to place an instant gasket sealant, and it stopped the leak completely, hope this helps someone.
