Which battery SDV8?

Hi All,

With all this cold weather the battery has finally died.

My car is A 2015 SDV8 and I'm not sure of the spec required. When I used Euros website it refers to a stop start version but my car is not stop start.

So does anyone know the cc, amps and dimensions of the most suitable battery? They seem to range from £150-400.

Check in behind the driver side side panel in the boot to see if you have the aux battery. you should have.

I’ve just ordered a new main battery and aux battery from Tanya for £250 ish delivered. Went for the Exide ek960 (updated 950) and EK720 (updated 700) as the LR batts are both Exide.. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Thanks Northern Jones!

Just ordered the same, hope it comes soon, driving the 911 in this weather is interesting!

Tanya shipped mine quickly and they came the next day after I ordered them. Just fitted them up today.

Weighty job to do the main battery, especially if you have a full sized spare!! But they fitted as they should.

The aux takes a bit of wiggling to get the +ve off but other than that it’s pretty plain sailing.

I’ve got a diagnostic so have reset the BMS for both batteries, but last time I swapped the main battery I didn’t bother and it was fine. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜
