United Kingdom 2009 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Auto Zermatt Silver

The bit of design I like about it , is that the 24v requires a physical move of the cable , not a switch that can be toggled by accident . Whatever possessed your brother to try to start his bike like that ? 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership

My brother is a salesman through and through, wouldn't know which end of a hammer to hold.
24V is twice as good as 12V obviously - more is better. Tangiers Orange - gone, missing her

My son worked in a west country dock and they had a standby truck with a 24v supply to jump start any vehicles that failed to start on the car carriers, didn't matter whether they were 12v or 24v they all got 24v, he said they never had any failures all 12v vehicles started and no reported alarms, though that doesn't mean there weren't any, the only object was to remove the vehicles as quickly as possible and that was to drive them. my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis
2012 HSE SD4 In Orkney Grey now gone, best car ever.

According to Tayna you need a 96 battery it may be too long, according to Tayna the 110 battery is for 2009 vehicles onwards, but if you have a 110 fitted already it must fit, also seems a touch cheap but the RAC battery has a CCA of 800A and the Powerline CCA 700A which can make a difference on cold mornings, for starting the CCA is the criteria it has the capability of spinning the engine faster and longer in the cold.



an 800A battery . .. . decent price . . Thumbs Up Thumbs Up
