I've had problems with water accumulating in the car which seems to be a common issue with these when the water drains get bunged up, I've googled and gone through every thread I can find, I think I've got all rear ones and managed to blow them through with an air gun but I'm struggling to identify where the ones in the front are.

I've seen the Porsche diagrams which show roughly where they are but I still can't identify them in the actual car and if maybe I have to remove the battery to get to them .... If anybody knows or can point me in the right direction be much appreciated!!

There is a fairly obvious one on the floor of the area near the battery under the plastic mesh covering. A piece of stiff wire cleared this in mine. It is not actually under the battery, just close to it. You will see it if you look. When clear, water drains directly though it and onto the ground. Leaf mold builds up here.

Pull off the rubber disc and discard .

If possible an airline up the tube or remove the rear speaker to gain access to the drain tray and remove any debris .

You can see the volume of dirt that builds up under the arch liner .. always worth cleaning out .
