Quick Battery Question... Posted by JustinHiFi [Email] ![]() ![]() |
I replaced my battery on Saturday evening. Since i had purchased the Everstart (2 year free replace) and it only lasted me 4 months (it would not continue to hold a charge at all) if was time for a new replacement. Over to Walmart I went.
I ended up opting for the Everstart Max (yellow 3 year free replace) and pay the extra $18.
The main thing I had a concern with was the CA and the CCA (cranking/cold cranking amps). The old one was 620 CCA and 750 CA, the new one is 900CCA and 1000CA. Even the old one was over what the computer said was the standard one for my Saab. Will these extra Amps end up damaging the starter or relays? I can always return it, but I think I could not resist the 1000 amps of power!! Also, I had the starter done at about 98k.
Thanks
