As above. I realise I tend to stuff tools and things in the boot side pockets, and may be obstructing the cabin out flow.

i did not think they had them, condensation is the seal needs cleaning, on the boot. and door seals worked on mine. cleaned all of them and its not done it since.

Estate ones are behind the spare wheel/jack

[frostbite]

The flaps are on the opposite side to the exhaust,
if you slam the boot lid youll make them jump (possibly be able to spot them if you look up under the bumper)

You shouldnt be able to block them, its got a grill and the flaps move outward like a dryer vent

You've clearly never had an estate bumper off

[frostbite]

Your right, I didnt need to take my bumper off my estate when I had it. (I couldnt even find a pic on the net of an omega with no rear bumper on)

But what I posted is true for most cars unless you know of any bar the omega

In a word, no. The estate cabin air vents through the rear light access covers, then down through a channel in the body panels to the spare wheel well. There are two vents side by side behind the jack.

thanks Doc, I've found it now.I suppose it exhausts into the space betwwen boot and rear bumper. I had hoped it might exhaust into a region of reduced pressure, but maybe not.

The cavity behind the rear bumper is hardly airtight
