Cool. Hope it’s an easy fix!
Turns out the rear wiper hose was leaking into the tailgate. They've done a temporary fix and ordered a new grommet from Germany but currently no ETA on that. Means I'll have to go back again at some point but they have at least got the tailgate to open again. Good luck getting yours sorted.

So took it in to service, they also said need new part, will take 2-3 weeks to arrive. But I drove it home and it opens and closes now. Will still go back for new part anyway

Mines in for second replacement part. Had it back less than 24hours and new part failed. Think may be a batch of dodgy parts!

Having the same issue. Pretty darn annoying. Apparently they have a revised part (B versus prior A) so clearly a know defect. Here’s the parts on order from Germany. Have been told one month minimum for delivery of new part.

Got my car back yesterday… 2 months without a functioning boot. Went in for range upgrade mid October and recall and no boot since. Replacement lock needed. Range fix TBC … not impressed awaiting Porsche Customer Service response or I’m off!
Just been replaced for second time so essentially no boot since October! Hope the latest versions work!

My tailgate button stopped working after my car went in a few days ago for heater replacement, when they also applied a software update. The tailgate button has since started working again- the thing is, I don't recall whether I had to change any PCM settings, but I do know they cleaned the car before handing it back- noting the issue upthread re. leaking wiper hose, I'm wondering whether my issue was a result of them cleaning with a high-pressure hose.

mine is sorted for the second time. Apparently there is a leak issue with the lock and water shorts it out.

I just noticed the sound of water sloshing about inside the tailgate whilst it opened and closed and there are signs of wated coming through gaps in the trim as it opens and closes.
This can’t be good for the electrics inside…
