Rear high mount taillight replacement NOT the worst..

[powershift]

Mine leaks a bit into the cabin during very heavy rain

I’ll probably try to reseal it before I replace it

I have a couple leaks in back on my LR4, a drip down the rear hatch window in monsoons. Another clue of a problem is at WOT and when the 5.0L starts omitting a viscous growl tone in the mid to upper power band, if the air is just right and its giving all it has, I smell exhaust. It gets in the cab and I think the smell is coming in from behind the SUV and not in front where the engine is like I had thought.

But today I had it WOT and passed 2 simi trucks and trailers with a car in-between and it was fine. I've forgotten all about it until now. Maybe the exhaust is coming in from the tail light. I'm curious about how re-sealing would work? In the pics I've seen the lens gets destroyed in order to get at the seal.
