That’s a lot of wires. Is this another country?
I’m only used to seeing ground, white (neutral), black (hot) and possibly red as an alternate hot. And a switch with (3) wires is usually a 3-way switch, meaning there is a 2nd switch that also controls the fan.

You can try fine sandpaper where the flapper seats. I've had success this way. Seems just enough of the previous ( deteriorated) flapper remained stuck there so new flapper wasnt seating positively flat for a seal there. LIGHTLY sand the rough china there, rinse, replace flapper with ANOTHER new one in case first got warped or otherwise compromised. Good Luck! 🚽
