Gave my 987.2 a good clean today, and being white, it showed up lots of green algae(?) in the nooks and crannies, so with an old toothbrush set to.
Did all that but also decided to check/clear all the drains.
Roof drains were ok, the drains at the B post in the roof drain channel ok too.
At the front though...
There are 4 drain holes, 2 either side of the battery though I thought there were only 3. The two that are 'hiding' were blocked and merged with the black debris down there.
The drain pipes are not straight down but have hard plastic elbows about 70mm down so block very easily.
Spent about 30 mis clearing the lot, vacuumed the battery box area of a lot of tree debris and ran copious water down the holes and watch the excess water flow swiftly away to the underside of the car.
Noticed that by the dain holes are 2 20mm dia holes that go directly to the inner front wheel arch so tons of road dross can enter into these battery spaces!
There must be grommets missing from new and explains why there is so much dirt accumulated.
A job for another day as gaffa tape is temporarily sealing those holes now.
