Water leak, spare wheel location

Hi,
I have a 2009 Golf where birds can take a bath where the spare wheel is when it's raining.

I have removed rear bumper and lights, but cannot find any signs of water entry. The water is clean, 99% sure it is rainwater.

Has anyone had similar issues? Is it a known problem?

OH YEAH, When mine was doing that I finally had to break down and replace the hatch seal. I did have a broken light that was allowing some to seep in but using the hose on the roof I found the majority of it was coming in on one corner of the hatch. I had to adjust the alignment to get it to close tighter on the new seal. Just putting in the seal didn't do the job.

Hope the rain is light in your area. We are getting almost an inch a day now.
