Battery Recommendation for 1989 TD California

Post by wbmkk »

What battery should I buy for my 1989 TD California.

The current battery is no longer holding its charge. This was bought at Eurocarparts, as my mate had an account there. Sadly he has now moved and I think Eurocarparts is for trade only ... or at least their prices are much better for trade customers.

thank you

They are not trade only.They usually have a discount code as well,if you order online and collect from your local depot..

Just checked.You can get one for £60.44 using the discount code "weekend35"

I'm looking to replace my battery at the moment for my 1.9TD AAZ engine.

Would you recommend the battery you linked to Martin or would I be better off with this one that I found on another post:

thanks for any advice
cheers
