Engine/Starter Battery

[Lazyboy]

Looks like I need a new starter battery.
What do knowledgeable funsters advise on the best product to purchase?
It is a stop/start battery.
I would like the greatest capacity in terms of Ah and cranking available.

I would simply replace like for like and turn of the stop/start function.....mine is on by default but I turn off every time I turn the key.
I can't see any real gain in a bigger starter battery

How long has the original lasted? If it's a reasonable life just go with the same spec again as for the start stop the battery should be specced to cope leave it on it won't operate unless the battery is charged anyway.

The op has start stop.

This is specifically not a start stop battery unless the seller has used the wrong symbol!

Stop/start.
If a starter and battery operates 5000 times in its lifetime then using stop/start may use the same battery and starter 25000 times......and that's a lot of unnecessary wear and tear and will shorten the lifetime considerably.

It’s says it’s not start/stop.

Press the off button for the Start/stop system. I hate it on the car especially when you've got the AC on or headlights. The engine is a multipurpose device that needs to stay on... I'll decide if it needs to go off! Bloody computers

StillGoing you need a Yuasa 7000 or 9000 for start stop
