What to know about the SQ7 battery
The SQ7 is the Audi battery job other shops turn down. On the first generation it lives under the seat, the seat needs power to move, and the battery is flat. We bring a power supply to move the seat first. It takes longer than other Audis, and we tell you that up front.
As an S or RS model, the SQ7 runs bigger cooling fans, pumps and audio than the standard car, so it should get the AGM battery at the upper end of the capacity range, not the cheapest one that fits.

These are the brands we normally recommend for this model, in the type and size it takes.
Where is the battery on an Audi SQ7?
On the first-generation Q7 (2006 to 2015) the battery is under the front seat, and the seat has to be moved right back or unbolted to reach it. On the second generation it is not in the engine bay either. We confirm the exact position from your chassis number.

Audi SQ7 battery questions
Short answers. Anything else — WhatsApp us.
Where is the battery in an SQ7?
On 2006 to 2015 cars it is under the front seat. On later cars it is away from the engine bay as well, under the luggage floor or a front seat depending on version. Jump posts are under the bonnet on all of them.
Why does a SQ7 battery change take longer?
Access. On first-generation cars the seat has to be moved and trim lifted before the battery can come out, and it is a large, heavy AGM. Expect 45 to 60 minutes instead of 30.
Does an Audi need battery coding after replacement?
Most Audis built from around 2008 do. The car's energy management has to be told a new battery is fitted, with its capacity and type. We do this on site with a diagnostic tool as part of the fitting.
Which battery does my Audi need, AGM or EFB?
If your Audi has start-stop, it needs AGM or EFB, and most larger models need AGM. We check by model, year and the label on the old battery, then fit the same technology or better.
