It got me thinking about if the D3 could jump start another car. I know the complex power management and the steel bar on the - terminal of the battery complicate things.
So, is it possible?

Yes - Positive to the battery, neg to the big metal post, used to do it loads in my D3
In the D4 you have a +ive and -ive terminal under the bonnet, although the battery is in the boot under the spare wheel! Works just the same
