Is there a spare in a Porsche Cayenne? 

Fortunately, the Porsche Cayenne has a spare tire for emergency roadside tire changes. 
You’ll be able to find the Porsche Cayenne’s spare tire underneath the car’s trunk. You can access the spare tire by following these simple steps: 
  • Open the cargo area floor lid in the trunk of the car to expose the spare tire. 
  • Take the tool bag out of the spare tire. 
  • Unscrew the wing bolt and remove the spacer cone. Then, remove the spare tire.

How to use the spare tire on a Porsche Cayenne 

While getting a flat tire while driving your Porsche is definitely a source of worry, it’s relatively easy to change your flat tire out with the spare. If you notice your tire is flat, pull over to the side of the road (away from traffic as much as possible) and:
  • Turn off your car’s ignition and turn your hazard lights on. Ensure you engage your parking brake. 
  • Secure your car by using wheel wedges, bricks, or even stones wedged underneath the back and front tires. This will further prevent your car from rolling. 
  • Take out the spare tire as well as the toolkit, the car jack, and the air compressor. 
  • Lay your spare tire flat on the ground and unscrew the tire valve. Use the air compressor to inflate your spare tire to 51 PSI. 
  • Using the toolkit wrench, loosen the flat tire’s lug nuts. 
  • Jack the car up using the car jack provided with the spare tire. 
  • Once the car is lifted, remove the lug nuts and slide the flat tire off the axle. 
  • Slide the inflated spare tire onto the axle. 
  • Tighten the lug nuts to secure the spare. Once you lower the car back to the ground, double-check each lug nut to make sure the spare is secure. 
Now, your Cayenne is ready to be driven to a nearby car repair shop. You’ll need to have a professional replace the spare with a new regular tire as soon as possible. 
Key Takeaway Use the toolkit provided to install your Cayenne’s spare tire after a flat. Do not drive on the tire more than necessary; head straight to a repair shop after installing the spare.
