Hello,
Does anyone know what the standard ah and cca battery that goes in the 2.4 diesel? Currently the car takes a while to turn over and start - looks like the battery is going as it drops to under 11v when cranking the engine Thanks Cameron |

As above.
Varta/Bosch/Yuasa are the best. Volvo are great too, and Exide. |

I have 95/800 volvo battery on mine, new 2 years ago (I bought car last may, or Id have got Varta) starts fine but not enthusiastically, would not want any less cca! The Yuasa top-end battery has 900cca!
Btw www.tayna.co.uk cannot recommend highly enough. Last edited by AndyV7o; Mar 17th, 2019 at 00:28. |

Put a yuasa 900CCA on my v70 a few weeks ago as the old one expired. Spins over really quickly now. Cots about £130 from Halfords.

Thanks for the replies! The battery is struggling to start the car most mornings now.
Out of the following, what would you recommend? Exide - 80ah/700CCA £67 Exide - 85ah/800cca £78 Yuasa - 95ah/850cca £89 Yuasa - 100ah/900cca £106 Thanks, Cameron |

Either of the Yuasa. Exide are good, when theyre good, but have a higher percentage of faulty batts. If budget is king the bigger exide should be ok, but for a tenner more, get the Yuasa, its a different league. The smaller yuasa will be more than adequate.
