I've had my '22 Taycan 4S for ~7 months and it was all going so well... For the last week, I've noticed that every time I take a fast right-hander (for example, accelerating hard while turning right onto another road), I notice some water fall on my right foot/ankle area. At first, I thought I was imagining it. On subsequent turns, I saw actual beads of water on my ankle. Not much. But enough to wonder why there's water inside the car. Each of these times occurred when it was nice and sunny outside. And my car is parked in a covered garage whether it is at work or at home.
When I finally got home tonight, I looked at the footwell (something I've never done in any other car!) and saw three holes. Hole #3 in the picture is where I saw a small amount of water sticking to the plastic tube. It is also the hole closest to my right foot (where I notice the water). This makes me believe hole #3 is the culprit.
The obvious questions are: What are these holes for? And why am I getting wet while driving (that's what she said???)??
I'm betting there are a few people on this forum that know the answer! Any help is appreciated!

Those would be part of your AC cooling system. The water is probably condensation. I know there was a recall a while back on some earlier models where the drainage tube could become dislodged. Report it to your dealer they should be able to look into it. Most like the issue. Good luck

Thanks! I’ll try to get my car into the dealer soon. Hopefully, they can take care of the uPdate at the same time.
