2015 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Causeway Grey

2005 4.2 supercharged battery

Hi guys
My SC has started playing up.

The parking sensors are going crazy
Lost all preset radio stations
Getting warning messages about HDC and suspension

I am guessing the battery should be the first thing to look at - no record of the last change in the service history.

Which battery is best for the 4.2 SC?

Any help would be really appreciated

Have a search on here, there are plenty of battery related threads

The consensus for the diesels is that a 110ah bosch/varta battery is the best, they can be a pain to fit if you have a pyro charge on the + terminal, but otherwise should go in ok. I would assume that it would be more than adequate for the s/c too. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

anything over 800 amps will be ok...
loads here fit the 020 s5 varta/bosch but these are best for the tractor diesel FF's that need the extra power to start.. ... - .- -.

I'm jealous of Stans close relationship with the lady attendant at his local petrol station...He spends more time with her (when he's filling up) than his SWMBO GONE 2010 Facelifted 3.6 TDV8 - Stornoway Grey + 22" Overfinch Olympus

2006 Range Rover Supercharged 4.2 SC V8 Bonatti Grey

I think it's fair to say that the SCs do enjoy a rather good drink.

The TDV8s on the other hand drink very little. They much prefer munching on a good hearty snack.........Usually their turbos!
