What are the methods to fix trunk water leakage?

Methods to deal with trunk water leakage are as follows: Clean the sunroof and trunk: Many car owners often do not specifically clean the sunroof and trunk when washing their cars. In fact, it is necessary to clean the drainage channels of the sunroof and trunk during routine car washing. Specifically, wipe away the dust and mud in the drainage channels on both sides, then use a thin and slightly stiff wire to unclog the drainage holes, and pour some clean water to rinse them. Lubricate and clean the sealing strips: Use a damp cloth to clean the sealing strips to prevent fine sand from sticking to them. Then, you can use talcum powder or baby powder to absorb excess oil and moisture from the sealing strips.

Where is the Neutral Gear in a Car?

Generally speaking, the neutral gear for a manual transmission is located in the middle position, while for an automatic transmission, it is marked with an 'N'. Here is more related information: Neutral Gear: Neutral gear typically refers to the state where the vehicle's gear lever is not engaged in any forward or reverse gear, completely separating the transmission from the drive wheels.
