DIN55 is the best bet. Manual suggest DIN50

Have seen that website already. But they don't list out batteries based on DIN!

Grrrr - check out batteries with 55 / 50 Ah ratings, if provided

Their website doesn't list any tech specs or if it does, I've gone blind

Praful Bhaina, just call up a dealer and ask them if they have a DIN55/50 equivalent and ask for a quote and exchange rate for the old battery.

Don't overdo the "dhakka start" - take care of the catcon - IIRC it costs around 15k for the palio

Ok, got a quote and some news.

Manufacturer reccomends DIN50, Amaron recommends DIN45!

Quotes I got :-

DIN55 - 6.6K
DIN45 - 5.75K

500 bux for the old battery and 100 bux for home delivery, the currenty battery is totally drained!

Am using a DIN60 Tata Green in my Fiat Petra 1.6

Purchased it for Rs. 5000 in Oct. 2010. No issues so far

Amaron does not make a DIN50/55 which is why they recommend a DIN45.

My dad got his car (a 1.6 Palio) fitted with a DIN55. Go in for the 50 if you are not keen on the 55.

Got a quote of 5250 [Battery] - 500 [Old Batt] = 4750 from BASE Terminal batteries for DIN55. With free home delivery.

Now I intend on letting go of this car in 1-1.5 years time, should I opt for BASE instead as its cheaper?

Not push starting the car as current battery is completely dead. How are the reviews for BASE?

planet_rocker · 27th July 2011, 12:34

go for it - a new battery will last that long for sure, i mean 1-1.5 years.

How many kms did the car clock? 12,000kms by you + ___?

My cousin installed the same battery for his swift diesel. No issues since 2 years

Ironically, since I posted yesterday about my cars battery (TATA GREEN), I am having some starting problems. Not sure if its battery related or something else
