Guess where the battery for a Porsche Cayenne is.
Under the driver's seat! You need to remove the seat to get to it; I can't imagine how Porsche says how to jump-start it. (I'm a bit of a fan of Youtuber Tyler "Hoovie" Hoover - he had a Cayenne with lots of problems* some years ago. * Yes, I know, Hoovie always has cars with problems...) Wade. |

It's easy to pull out the seat, but still ... -- Drew |

Terminals under the hood.
It looks like jump starting it isn't a big deal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgipEB8IQCI Replacing the battery probably is, but they probably want you to take it to the dealer for everything anyway. :-/ Wasn't there a Chevy Monza or something that required that you had to take off the motor mount and transmission support to drop/raise the motor enough to change a rear spark plug? Ah yes, yes there was... Cheers, Scott. |

My wife's Buick Century had rear brakes that had a custom tool to recess the pistons to do a brake job. You literally couldn't do that job without the custom, single-purpose tool. And you had to remove one of the front wheels and driveshaft to access the oil filter. -- Drew |

and learning about the car, the battery is under the back seat with the fuse box
there is a positive lead to the engine compartment so that helps. Oil change, radiator flush, and new tires then take it on a short road trip "Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts" – Richard Feynman |
