Hi all.
I need to replace my battery (2001 A4 B6) and went to my local car parts shop.
Walked in, told him what I wanted, he asked the reg, ordered the battery and I picked it up a couple of hours later.
Now I don't know if he's given me the wrong battery, or the wrong one was fitted to my car last time it was changed.
The one in now is 70 Ah, 700A.
The new one is 60 Ah, 540A.
Could someone explain what these numbers mean, and whether the new battery is good enough, compared to the current one.
Also, the new battery is a slightly different size, but I think it might fit. Does anyone have the exact dimensions of the oem?
Thanks everyone. How can it be so difficult to swap a battery ??
