Vehicle is now with my local Porsche centre, apparently it is a coolant leak on one of the front motors. The centre has informed me that the motor is a sealed unit and is not supposed to leak so they will have to replace the motor which is not a straight forward job.
So far estimate of 2 to 3 weeks to complete the work, also not impressed with Porsche assist who only offered a BMW 420d hire car as a replacement (NO COMPARISON).

This is different. A mechanical problem rather than an electrically related problem.

I also had water leaking from my vehicle while fast charging but I assumed that was condensation from the AC. Did you see the coolant leaking?

No it was an amber warning on the vehicle that brought it to my attention

After nearly six weeks in the garage and a replacement motor my Taycan is due to return, after so long it should feel like a new car. Hopefully no niggling problems.
