Is the battery in a Tourag under the driver's seat like it is in a Cayenne? Easy to get to, huh? First time I changed the battery in a Cayenne it took 3 hours. Next one should only be about 1.5 hours, which is what the dealer charges for the labor.

Thanks for posting. I made a mental note of your findings.
