Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I've cleaned the lower drains in the rear behind the well covers but when I test them, I get water coming out of may places, not just the drains.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I was told there are several water drains on the Cab that need to be kept clean. I found the (2) by the battery. Can someone please tell me where the others are located and the best tool / trick to clean them out? Thanks...

POST 4Original post

Not to re-hash an old thread but, I'm trying to figure this one out too. I've cleaned the lower drains in the rear behind the well covers but when I test them, I get water coming out of may places, not just the drains. This is from testing the 3 oblong holes under the hard cover in the rear. In the front, I believe there should be hoses attached to the 4 grommets. None appear to be attached to mine. It's really odd. I am getting water into the cabin at an alarming rate so I park on a hill and soak it up at every opportunity. Thoughts?

POST 5Original post

There is a TSB from Porsche regarding the drains in the Front. Porsche has a new kind of rubber grommet for the drains near the battery. Crazy part is the TSB directs one to install the new grommets and to remove the drain hoses all together. I'm not sure how this is meant to help. You may want to make sure that your Alarm Module under your seat is elevated or protected from the water somehow. Water in the Alarm Module will cause all sorts of very expensive problems. Unfortunately I know first hand.

POST 6Original post

I went through the carwash today, and after I was finished and vacuuming the car, I randomly looked in the battery compartment and saw both sides flooded with water. I was able to vacuum out the water, but now I need to clean the drains. I would imagine that there is 1 drain on each side of the battery, but I see someone saying 3-4 drains on each side. Is this correct?

It is recommended to NOT take your cab through a car wash.
