Hmm, I know exactly which snap you are talking about, after recently being there with mine. If you have a rear window wiper / washer, I would suggest that you inspect the rubber tube that runs between the body to the upper right top of the rear hatch (the wiper motor wires and washer fluid hose are inside). Mine was totally perished from age, and would allow water to enter both the van and the rear hatch. I ginned up a replacement using rubber hose and RTV to seal the ends until I can obtain a VW replacement. Also, check to make sure that there is no debris laying in the gutter (forward of the seal) blocking water drainage.
