Default Battery removal

How high does the seat raise up after you remove the front two bolts?
Mine is only raising about 6-8" and there is not enough room to get the battery out.

Search is your friend.

Each model seems to have its own particular way. If it's a 958, here ya go: https://rennlist.com/forums/cayenne-...nt-access.html

If not, just search your year or model number. I recall someone even doing a video.

I have been searching for a couple of days and found several write ups, some with photos, but nothing that showed the seat view that VIPNess's shot did.
The vid that Matt O shot is the 1st time I have seen a shot of ANYTHING being taken out of the back (which is proably the issue I'm having)
Thanks guys

How similar is this video process on the 958?

Very similar to the video with a couple exceptions - see attached doc. On the 958 the front seat removal is not usually required, but is helpful to give better access; but if you do not remove the seat, then you need to remove bolts and lift the seat up and out of the way - identical to the video. Sometimes removal for the seat belt anchor helps too. Also there is an electrical switch under the left front seat that switches it from / to transport mode. You will most likely have to unplug this switch to be able to lift the seat high enough. Once the seat is up and away, see the attached doc for exact details.
