Disco 2 Anyone brought a new battery recently?

alexc2701 · Nov 16, 2017

Anyone know what dimensions are for d2 batteries? Can't find it on net! That or a recommendation for a decent one, the suggested ones seem a tad puny

Cheers

Hi just bought a battery for my disco 1 from Tanya Batteries good price £80 + delivery arrived next day

Looked on Tanya batteries cheers for info they have one using the proper part number looks perfect fit. Most others in amp range were edge rarther than middle terminals and didn't look like cables would reach. https://www.tayna.co.uk/YGD100860-Enduroline-Battery-For-Land-Rover-P9073.html

Damnit I already brought the other one for 25 quid more! Didn't see bulletbatt when I was searching :/ seems to be pretty much same rating too. Ah well those enduroline ones seem to have good feedback. Hopefully worth the extra dolla haha

Battery dimensions are 325mm l x 175mm b x 220mm h on the one I took out of my TD5.

Was that the original factory fitted battery?

sierrafery · Nov 17, 2017

Originally factory fitted battery on D2 Td5 was Delco Freedom 110Ah 800CCA which became obsolete, the dimensions of that enduroline or bullet from the tanya links are perfect fit

+1 on Tayna batteries. That size of battery can be supplied by them from different manufacturers (well, the same battery with different badge stickers!). Specs are much of a muchness, the only major differences are in the price.
It does fit perfectly, if just a little tight on the Disco 2.

Yes they are a snug fit. Best to attach the terminals first then the securing bracket. Gives you a bit more wriggle room

hi Sierrafery - I need a new battery - would you still recommend the BulletBatt over the Enduroline? That is actually what I am replacing - only a year old but the car sat at a salvage yard for 6 months with the rear door open.. Many thanks

Hi. I can still recommend the Bullet as it lasted about 8 years for me and i wasn't scrupulous with it which is a good longevity these days, just replaced it few months ago while it was still usable but i like the battery to be very powerfull... i would have bought anoter from UK cos it's not available in EU but i didnt due to brexit ... i can't compare it with Enduroline as i've never had one so i recommended what i knew it's OK
