booble Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 HiMy lupo won't start, battery is not completely dead, as the stereo still works, yet the clock has reset, there isn't sufficient power to start the car. There is also a bit of discharge from the terminal.I'm looking to pick up a new battery locally from Halfords, quick question will this one be fine for my 1.4s Lupo?http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_264129_langId_-1_categoryId_165762#tab3Thanks in advanceMatt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadmetal Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Check your alternator is working first.No point putting a new battery in if the alternator won't charge it, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
