2) have the coil packs been checked / changed ?
Just a suggestion as know these can be problematic as they age and can sometimes cause oxygen sensor errors on certain readers?

Cheers

Wet patch on carpets - if not drain holes (check front as well as rear), could it be the seal between the door cards and doors. These can allow water through if the 'gasket' fails or the card's been off, so is bottom of door(s) damp? also make sure the tray under clam shell the water collects in and goes down the drain holes isn't damaged or cracked

As for a breakers never really used one, but there's Douglas Valley at Standish (think they are on eBay as Steve Strange) , there's Jasmine Porsche who I think do some used parts at Nelson. You do also see them on eBay.

Hope this helps

If it's the wet patch is behind the seats on that part it's definitely the drainage in the clamshell. I used a pressure washer to blast them through on my 986. All kinds of leaves came out the bottom. Also drainage in the front so if the wet patch is at the front in the footwell it's the front ones. If it's on the side then most likely door seal as said above.

2/ a poor functioniong air mass sensor will often throw up lambda fault codes .. you should have driveing issues with it though , ie not reving past 4.5 k or feeling very flat .. lack of power .

To check i unplug them and give it a drive .. can normally soon see if its better performance wise .

3/ water leak behind drivers seat is rear drain hole as mentioned above , in front of seat then drains holes .. youve checked , look for any grommets in the bulkhead right side of battery.

If its a 987 then under the wiper arms is a panel , windscreen seal is possible.

Best to get someone to hose it down whilst you look under the dash for the leak .
