That's just....bizzare. Makes me thankful for a manual release cable on the old '99

I've never before experienced it this bad. Usually it's just putting jumper cables to the emergency post in the fuse box and then popping the frunk. The manual says the alarm will sound, but this is the first time that has ever happened. This battery was apparently so dead it turned into a vampire!

Yeah I really shouldn't let it go months without driving that car...

The Cayenne is what I love, but when they started it in the garage when I picked it up... Oh my :mrgreen:

Quickly getting on 20 years old and it still sounds so wonderful and even on a 90 degree humid day it still pulled nice and strong in 2nd and 3rd :twisted:
