Battery dead

Nicknamed

Need to change car battery of my Corolla2002 1.4 VVTI.
Micks garage is quoting 90€ online. Any price lower than that?
I'm located near this https://goo.gl/maps/3iEdW1jjPTS2 and would appreciate a recommendation near but can travel a bit if getting a good deal
Thanks.

batterys are normally 80-90 from motor factors

go for one with highest cold cranking amps, and reserve capacity.

make sure u get warranty most have a minimum 2 year warranty

What sort of numbers to look for in these values?

cold cranking amps no less than 450 ,battery capacity no less than 50-AH. Good brands will have high numbers , cheaper ones will be a good bit less

My recommendation Yuasa Silver 5000 series, Corolla have funny shaped batterys very hard to find the original shape ones. You will probably need to use some kind of packing to hold it in securely.

Price one in a Toyota dealer, have seen sometimes cheaper getting from there. Your nearest dealer would be Carroll And Kinsella in Blackrock/Booterstown.

I would agree here . 2 years ago i got a vatra for a 1.4 golf in the main dealers for 50 euro

have you included the discount code 'PART15' in the Micks Garage price ? Brings the Bosch down to €76.67.....with free delivery to your door.

If you go to a motor factor they will take the old battery free of charge.
