You could only just see mine,have a good look under there Paul,my crackwas only about 20mm long and sometimes you can't even see them as they are under and around the 4 subframe bushes.

Yep, as Bres said they are very small and hidden well sometimes.
Mine was the same, just creeping out from under one of the rear sub frame bushes but Eagle Eyed Gareth found it during an Inspection 1 last year.

What is the fix ? Is it just replace the parts of standard spec which would mean can easily happen again or were parts replaced to a much higher better specification regarding the rear subframe and boot floor :-) ?

Thanks very much

The cavity is also injected with structural foam.

i think the new floor pan has a ridge in it to strenghten it, and then the foam bonding agent

So could this easily happen again in 10 years or will this have sorted this out for the next 30 years :-) ?
