If others don't know of a common fault, they can be a pain to trace.
I had 'soggy boot syndrome' with an Opel Manta many moons ago. Finally traced it to the rear window rubber.  Lifted the outer rubber enough to get the sealant nozzle in and a 'once round' sorted it.

Have you a sunroof? The drain pipes run through the boot.....
