Water in battery well & squeeky steering wheel
Hello mate
A common place for the boot to leak is through the brakelight on top of the boot, the seal may need changing.
As for the steering wheel I am not sure but if its plastic touching plastic try silicon spray as that will be better than wd40

Thanks mate will check it out
Re: Water in battery well & squeeky steering wheel
The 3rd brakelight is the most common entry point for water in the boot, but there are others.
Mine was leaking through the rear light cluster (both actually!), the ariel grommet is another possibility.
