Not sure I have seen a write up on this but here are some photos (click the gallery button below) of the simple mods I had to do to fit the large battery in my 2008 RR TDV8.

I went for the Varta I1 / 610 402 092 which cost me only £95 delivered (within 48hrs)

The larger case size is (just) fine, this issue comes with the black box which I was warned was an explosive disconnect but turned out to be a big & boring fusible link.

This needs repositioning from the side to the top.

I have attached photos of the critical bits - if enough interest I will do a full write up - but it is simple enough job and I have noted a few "quirks" seem to have gone away with eth bigger battery.

For £95 I am very happy

Nice write up and pics.

I'm thinking of upgrading my battery. My audio/video soon shuts down without the engine running. Current : Range Rover 5.0 SC 2011 Orkney Grey

Does the diesel not have the larger battery anyway ? I already had the large battery on my 4.4 petrol !
