Find the right Defender Puma battery
The main choice is between a conventional sealed starter battery and an AGM starter battery. Both must provide the correct physical fitment and terminal layout, as well as enough cold cranking performance for the 2.4 or 2.2 TDCI engine.
| Job | Best place to start | Check before ordering |
|---|---|---|
| Standard starter battery replacement | Hankook 100Ah 850CCA starter battery | Case dimensions, right-hand positive terminal layout and B13 hold-down |
| AGM starter battery replacement | Yuasa YBX9019 95Ah 850A AGM battery | Original battery type, physical fitment and terminal position |
| Slow or reluctant cranking | Battery condition and cranking test | Measured CCA, battery voltage and voltage during cranking |
| Repeatedly discharged battery | Battery and charging-system test | Alternator output, terminal condition, earth connections and parasitic drain |
Check Puma battery fitment before ordering
Do not select a battery from voltage and capacity alone. The case must sit correctly in the battery box, the clamp must secure it properly and the terminals must match the position of the original battery leads.
