    Yes we did fit an incorrect battery, will just see how it goes. And from more research it looks like the Alternator is charging ok and only puts out the charge that the battery needs.

      I enjoyed the video. I have a 05 RR hse . I replaced the old battery with a new one. I am having issues with the in active suspension notice on my dash. I did the steering wheel reset left to right and the inactive suspension will not go away. All other symbols went away except that one.I don't have any issues with my suspension. Is there a step I'm missing? Everything was perfect with old battery as far as notifications!

    Great video , has given confidence to swap mine out, not sure if I need to go for bigger one but I am replacing an agm which local battery Co incorrectly itted 3 years ago , which as you will no for a 2007 is not suitable ( no stop start on my car), the charging system needed for a agm is different and so if I do short journeys using, high load electric screen etc, it never totally recharges the battery and so when I park for 20 mins with side lights on as parking requirements, it ends up not starting, plus other ancillary items don't work properly.
    I'm just about to change it myself using your your video will help
    Just one thing, I'm thinking of getting a obd reader , which unit is needed for tdv8 2007 as a min
    Thanks
    There is one other job on a tdv8 which as difficult as battery, getting the spare wheel out. You need a crane if you've got 20"

    • @Bensgarage

      There should be a strap for your spare wheel, that you hook on the tailgate, open the lower tailgate and it lifts the wheel out of the well. Mine is a 2010, without start stop. Had a Land Rover AGM fitted. I tried to put a bigger capacity battery in, it worked for just over a year. Fitted an AGM in it again, and so far so good. As for obd, there are so many choices, something budget or more expensive? The GAP tool is fantastic, but pricey. I have just put my icarsoft LR V2 up for sale, works well and goes into all systems on land rovers, just basic obd on any other make.

    How is the battery behaving today, I have been researching batteries for l322 and swapping from an 019 to an 020 appears to be the consensus. Withe pre 2010 led acid is recommended not AGM and the brand you used is also recommended as original fitment to the L322.

      This is the battery I fitted batteriemegastore.fr/product/batterie-de-demarrage-varta-i1/ a lot more power than the original battery but it is also bigger in size which made it tricky to fit in the hole. Not a straight forward swap. Also the old battery was an AGM where as the replacement is not.

      @@bobstone1701I fitted a BOSCH S5 015, 110Ah, 12V (0 092 S50 150) to my 06 4.4 petrol earlier. No problems with size and figment. Ben’s video really helped. Trick I used was to use a couple of cable ties to keep all the cables out the way and also I unclipped the windscreen shroud to lift up the corner a touch so battery could ease in. That made things easier. Previous owner had a Halford- style (whatever the Swiss equivalent is) HOCO battery which was smaller but only 95ah. It wasn’t up to the job. workshop manual states 110ah and 850 amps so the Bosch / Varta is a decent choice based on factory spec.

      Ben Elliott That’s good to know. Every time I have disconnected a battery to replace it or other reasons I have had to type back in the radio code. I can only talk about Volvo’s or Ford’s though,. In fact the last battery I had replaced at Halfords the guy connected a battery device to the diagnostic port. (I forget what it’s called) to keep the power live in the car.

      Air susp inactive you can normally sort by turning it full lock one way then full lock the other, it resets the warning after a flat battery. No idea about windows and don’t think there is a switch for the panel.
