Apologies, looks like I've got the wrong fuse box! :(

There is a drain hose just below the filler cap. Is that blocked? Air line or cocktail stick should fix that.
I cleaned the hole out when I washed the car on Sunday. It was blocked as water had built up but quickly vanished when the hole was clear.

I had water getting in from the 2 cable ducts in the top of the tailgate aperture. OPC couldn’t find the leak, they opened a ticket with Porsche UK, who suggested that OPC sealed them with some silicone sealer. Not had an issue since. I need to point out that I didn’t have a boot footwell full of water though.
No water marks on the tailgate cover but probably worth an inspection around that area

Hi, if you pull the drain plugs from the tailgate and see if water pours out?
I had a battery submerged in water but it was more the pano roof drain being blocked than anything else but my tail gate was also full of water which overfills into the battery area.
