Hello,

Today, while I was driving home from work, it seems my battery died. No more problems! I then checked the cells and one is completely damaged, and others are also not in good condition!
Now I probably need to get a new one!
I currently have a 72Ah battery in my 3-door TDI and I'm wondering if I can install a 'larger' one. I have two amplifiers in my car. Therefore, my question:
What kind of battery should I get, or what do you have?
Currently, it has a capacity of 12V 72Ah 380A
What does a battery like this cost approximately?

Thank you.

Moin,
Bleiakkus halten am längsten, wenn sie immer gut geladen sind.
Also zunächst mal nachschauen, wieviel Ampere die Lichtmaschine max liefern kann, und dann anahnd des persönlichen Fahrprofils entscheiden, ob sich eher der standardakku oder einer mit höherer Kapazität lohnt

Hatte damals bei meinem Passat 35i TDI eine 100Ah drinnen (wegen der Standheizung), und die wurde mit der 120A-Lichtmaschine immer voll. Ich nehme mal an dein Variant hat auch eine 120er Lichtmaschine, oder wurde bei Dir da gespart?

Hi,

meine hatte sich auch am Anfang dieses Jahres verabschiedet.
Ich habe mir dann eine Optima Blue Top zugelget.
Die hat 12V 61Ah und 900A.
Kostet normalerweise 250Euro. Das ist eine "Hifi-Batterie", keine Ahnung was das heißen soll, ist aber gut sowas zu haben icon_wink.gif
Nee, im Ernst, bin ganz zufrieden damit.

Grüße,
Thomas
