912 Battery size

Post by MartinP »

Can anyone tell me the physical dimensions of the battery in an early 912? I don't have my car with me and need to get a new battery - stupidly I didn't measure it before I left this morning. If anyone can help then I would be extremely grateful!

Hi Martin

Sorry dont have the dimensions but i fitted a new battery to my car last year.

These are the details of mine

Battery type: 043
Round posts

Cold cranking amps: 380
Ampere hour capacity: 45

Not sure how it compares to the original for size but it fits nicely in the tray and has the posts on the right side. Seems to have a good bit o' juice in it for starting too.
