I’ve read loads of threads each giving differing opinions on how to and what battery.
Boxster battery is ready to be replaced, the CTEK will charge it just enough to start the car, only just, any more starts and I have to hook up the NOCO Boost jumper to the battery.
Bought replacement battery from Eurocarparts.
Battery that has been in place since I bought the car 5.5 yr ago is a
Bosch S5 008 77Ah/ 780A
Dims: 278 x 175 x 190
So that’s what I’ve gone for again this time.
Some people on here I’ve seen recommend leaving the CTEK plugged in to the cig lighter socket so the car doesn’t lose clock/fuel trims/PSM settings/ radio code etc
Is it as simple as that?
Just remove negative terminal on battery, then positive, then battery clamp and refit in reverse?
Or are there any other precautions needed?
