I looked under the driver seat today as my battery is on its way out (after 5 years I am OK with that).

Part# on the battery in there is 3D0915105G. A quick google resulted in this VARTA bulletin http://www.partnernet.varta-automotive.com...che_Cayenne.pdf with these exact dimensions (LxWxH: 353x175x190).

Rayovac makes a battery, the SLI93T8, with these dimensions (LxWxH): 354x175x175, so a little lower.

Capacity and CCA (cold cranking amps) are similar, so looking at pricing around $129, this looks like a better deal than an original Porsche battery.

Any thoughts?

So how much does Porsche charge for a new battery ?

On my BMW M6, they charged something like 700 USD, for a new BMW M6 Battery... :huh:
