If you're searching for 093 then that's the physical size of the battery, the battery tray is much bigger than that 093 currently fitted so a physically larger battery for the diesel version may well have a higher CCA for less dollars, with me know? The battery on atm is an 097 with CCA of 400.The one I'm looking at replacing it with is an 097 with CCA of 525. You're missing the point mate...Go into your factors and tell them you want a 097 heavy duty or something that is at least the same capacity/spec that will fit in the battery tray...Obviously measure the battery tray..

You obviously don't get it, never mind fade to grey I've tried three Factors round here non of them do the old fashioned battery terminals anymore. There all round terminals these days. I've ordered one of these for the Cossie after ringing them up to check the terminal configuration. Just checking now before I order 4 x 205/50/15 R15 89V Toyo Proxes T1-R Performance Road Tyres via a site on the bay. Get the new battery on and the new tyres then investigate this ABS fault which I suspect is one of the ABS wheel sensors.

Cant decide between 205/50/15 R15 89V Toyo Proxes T1-R or Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE002 205/50 R15 86 W FR Bridgestones are £15 a tyre dearer. The load Index is different but shouldn't make that much difference should it? How you finding your Toyo Proxes Digger on Corrado?

New battery with the older terminals fitted starts on the button now. It came from these and happy with the service. I rang them up and spoke to a human. They will price match so worth a try next time anybody wants a car motorbike or leisure battery. They even do lawn mower batteries Spud.

Ordered 4 Toyo Proxes T1-R for the Cossie. The Bridgestones had gone up another £4 a tyre so that made my mind up.

Courier tried to deliver the tyres yesterday at 17.30 and after spending most of the day at home. I wasn't expecting them and had to pop out for half an hour. Re-scheduled for delivery today sometime.

Getting the Toyo Proxes fitted first thing in the morning and going to get it up on the ramp and have a look at the under side. Not moved much in the last few months so will give her a run out this weekend.
