Does anyone know of a jack pad out there for these Cayenne's? Looks like ones meant for Audi's (R8) will fit? I want to get some RennStands, but the pinch-weld pad doesn't look usable.
Hello,
I'm looking to do the same thing. CSR from SafeJack yesterday told me that 2019 Cayenne has a pinch weld for jack point and that standard pads will work. Needless to say this didn't inspire much confidence. I think the Tesla/Porsche adapter (18M-P08) would work pretty well - has a 0.375 or 3/8" circular stud with a rubber cap on a wide base. Stud fits inside the jackpoint and weight of vehicle supported on flanges of jack point. The one they recommend (18M-P13) uses a 2.75" long piece of 1" square tubing welded to a base - weight will definitely be borne by inside surface of the jackpoint, but it is fitting square tubing into a radiused receptacle, which I am not sure if that is a problem or not. The Audi R-8 adapter (18M-P13) looks to be the best fit using a cylindrical piece welded to the base and from your measurements and mine, is pretty close to the included Porsche jack. Again the contact is the inside surface of the jack point, but with a convex curved surface articulating into a concave curved surface. I think that one is the best option, and was hoping someone else here had taken the plunge.
That was the same guy I conversed with. Too bad he didn't reference this thread. I think I'm going to order a pair. I wanted a Quick Jack, but am not wild about using it transversely since they don't have a model that will fit for longitudinal use. Second choice was Jackpoint stands, until I spoke with their guy who knew his stuff, and he told me as is the product won't raise a cayenne up off the tires - will require one extra set of pads in front and two extra pads in back or using lumber under the stands, I still was possibly in on them, then he told me Tesla Asia bought up his whole next two foundry runs, and won't have inventory until probably April. Not really in a dead rush hurry, but figure why not try two of these and see how it goes, if I like them, I'll get two more, if I don't love them, maybe I'll buy a pair of jackpoint stands as I want four anyways. Glad you were watching this thread.

I have all of this stuff in hand (well - one Renn Stand and the adapter). If I get a chance, I’ll try and put it all together, jack up the Cayenne, and take a picture or two. Gonna be this weekend at the earliest, though.
