Is that the typical Porshe jack point or will I need to find another adapter for my floor jack?

BTW, these diagrams are in the manual:

Right…. I finally got it - and you’re right - it’s a rectangular jack head…and no damage to my car by the tyre man.

And under the car there’s some sort of metal sheet protecting everything - the composite material is just around the edges!

It is not the same as the Taycan for sure. It looks like the same as our recently totaled Q8 etron. The pad I used on the etron linked below. I will confirm it when we get the Macan in the next week or so.

I ordered this puck from eBay. If this fits I’ll be ordering a jack :)

Definitely no jack in my car. Weird the manual has the guidance above.
