Jumpstart from Phev

[andycalvia]

My other cars battery is flat, the Leon has no charge so is starting the engine from the startup.

Is it possible to jumpstart my other car from the Leon in this situation or is it too risky?


EDIT: Scrap that idea. Just opened the engine bay and it's impossible. Nowhere to connect any leads up to.

I can't see any reason why it would be a problem, using either the battery terminals or the charging prongs.

There were some other forums of other cars saying it's a no as the voltage isn't the same a conventional car battery as they only kick in whilst the vehicle is in motion, but the Leon can start the engine straight away when the driving battery has no charge whatsoever
