When i go to start the '44 the front headlamps cut off and the cabin light flickers

Had it drop-tested last winter as it got drained after a failed start and they said it was 'weak' but still good to use so carried on with it. I think it will let me down this winter though, especially as the reading on the dash meter is only just above 12V when it gets nippy out

Anyone know the correct ratings/codes for a 2.7 lux so I can prhaps go armed with the info to a local motor factors? I think it needs a 600Ah battery but I'm reluctant to just trust the numbers on the one already in there as I didn't fit it

Cheers 944'ers,
Adam

Not again, just put your bl00dy hand in those deep pockets of yours & buy a new 'un!
The battery that Halfords list is the wrong one, it's around 5mm too tall. When I get home (Friday late) I'll be able to tell you what it should be. I also have a Halfords discount card that'll save you a bunch of cash.

you're far too nice

You'll save £30 with Jim's card, that must be worth a pint at the next club night

I've got one of theirs on the S2, no issues with it so far.

Right let's clear this up right now, I am NOT the forum tightwad I'm just about to install a new kitchen at home!

My attitude to all things, and chiefly because I'm an engineer, is that I don't try to fix what ain't broken
The battery has done just fine for the last few months but now it's probably time to sort it before it lets me down.
