Thanks for Checking out my latest Cayenne video on how to replace the battery. It’s found under the drivers seat, not the easiest to get to. Hopefully this will make it less painful for you. Stay tuned for future videos! Thanks for watching!

One step missed, and I missed it too until I read it on Rennlist. And I'll have to go back in to finish the job.
Your AGM H8 most likely has two vent holes on either side. You are using the negative side hole, but there is, most likely, also a positive side vent hole that needs to be plugged up. The positive (red) plastic cover that came with your battery has a little red plug attached to it (to be broken off) to plug up the unused hole. This way, only the negative side vent hole is being used.
Luckily, I found the plastic positive terminal cover in my trash. Now I "think" I can just remove the seat bolts, tilt the seat and pop the cover and get the plug in without removing the battery again, since the hole is very near the top of the batt. Just gotta be careful not the drop the red plug in the battery compartment or I may have to pull the batt out again.
Hi! Do you have a list of what all tools I need to change it?? I’m kinda sorta maybe mechanically inclined enough to change it. The shop wants over $600 I’m just labor to change it. Thank you
12:04 how do i reset the “emergency brake” warning signal after battery replacement. Didnt have this warning before and i have fully checked to make sure emergency brake is not on and fully released?
Will it reset on its own?
What model year Cayennes is this applicable for? Guessing 2011-2014 since yours is a 2013? I have a 2012 S Hybrid and the dealership is quoting me $931.16 battery and labor. I mean, I can see it's hard to get to, but that sounds crazy to me. Is it because mine's a hybrid?
nice job !!!!!!!
I don’t know if you did this BTS and forgot to mention but you’re supposed to program the new battery in the ECU. This is done so that the voltage regulator does not overcharge or undercharge the battery. It might fry some control modules as well if you’re not too careful. Just a FYI
Hi Kevin, I have enjoyed watching your videos. They are concise and to the points of importance. Forgive me asking a question on the battery replacement. Do we need to register the new battery? If so, do you happen to know what to do? I am thinking to purchase the Foxwell NT809TS scanner. They said it can do battery registration. I am not sure if registration is a must or what does it do. Thanks in advance.

I really appreciate all the work you go through to produce these videos. You saved me some real money on the fluid change videos. Thank you.
Great to see you back!
Recently paid over $400 to have the battery changed in my Cayenne…!!!
Please new video for cleaning exterior of radiator (engine cooling). When to do it? and how to get off front bumper, for Porsche cayenne 958
I subscribed for the 996 content but I’m really glad to see that you dropped a new video!
Interesting, I was just watching a battery replacement video on car care kiosk for my 2013 958 (thankfully out of curiosity and not necessity). This video is much more in-depth! FYI I work for Advance Auto corporate in Raleigh. Thanks for all of the great videos! I’ll be changing the transfer case fluid tomorrow based on your tutorial. I’m going to talk to the Battery Category Manager to see if they should request VIN number to ensure customers get the right battery on the first trip!
Excited to watch it!
