Cayenne Jacking Points

[97boxsterred]

Can someone please tell me the correct points to jack the Cayenne. I have included pictures of both front and rear areas, and I am not clear as to which points are to be used. I would like to raise the vehicle and then put a jack stand underneath, what is the correct way to use both a jack and a stand on a Cayenne?

These are the only jack points Porsche approves.

The jack points listed in the owners manual references using the emergency jack and placing it in the metal lip underneath the car. However, I use a hydraulic 3 ton jack and that caused some bending of the metal lip.

I need to know if anyone has experience using the points that I show in my pictures... I read on pca.org that the big round silver washer is a jacking point...

I would like to clarify this before I cause more damage to the metal lip.

Use the lift points and a block of wood or hockey puck.

The lift points you mentioned are used for : a) garage jack B) garage lift. Never use the sub frames for jacking ( the ones with a bolt in the middle )

I used a small block of wood with a drill 2" hole in the middle. I place it undernead the bolt with big round silver washer without touching the bolt. So far so good, never had any problem.

When the Cayenne is raised on the hoist at the dealer for service, are the hoist pads placed under the rocker-panel jacking points, or some other chassis points? Anybody seen it done at the dealer? There's too many ways to get seriously injured or killed trying to do a brake job with the car jacked by the rocker-panel points only. Doesn't pass the Darwin test in my book.

I have always seen them use the rocker panel jacking points.
