Default Jump leads.

Battery failed on my car last week but the good news is that it is a Bosch S5 which was just less than 4 years old and replaced by Eurocarparts.

Two things that I noticed
1. When the battery was failing when the car was locked the indicators did not flash once. The alarm set and all the doors locked. Fitted new battery and they now flash on locking. Might help someone in the future if they notice this.

2. The jump leads that I have had for years and were perfect for starting a 2.0l petrol really struggled to start the 2.4l diesel.

So I need a new set of jump leads but have looked on eBay and Amazon but there are hundreds to choose from.

Can anyone recommend a good heavy duty set to cater for more than the 2.4 as my son has a 4.4 diesel Range Rover.

Thank you in advance.
