They quote "Capacity 680 cca" when I ask for a battery for my car.

However I'd check the earht first, just connect a jump lead between the battery and the earthpoint on your gearbox and see what it does.
Thanks, which discount code and with which company bud?

The earthing wire from battery to slam panel is horrendous, I must get another and do mine as I don't like the look of it
Didn't notice hardly any difference, but I have the standard air box set up, and standard exhaust from the cat back. I will notice more of a difference with these done. Haven't got the MIL it on yet, just I keep clearing the code with my code reader. It does sound nicer tho James.

All the leads checked out ok, so connected jump leads to Neg and pos terminals. Think its new battery time.
