    Don't see the point of this. A normal Varta battery for 180 Euro will do the same job...

    The Varta is even around € 110 over here …. even more profitable imo.

    And now in my 458 for 4 years … and working fine still :)

    Am I correct if you want to check to see the battery in your car you just pull down on the flap in the passenger foot well? There’s nothing special to do but just pull down on that flap?

    Usually there should be a black plastic knob up there. Unscrew that and then you can open the flap.

    Refer to this video @ 4:00
