Looking at the top of the battery will confirm if its AGM or not. I don't know - I suspect it is but having a look is a 2 min job but needs the compressor unbolting. it simply lifts out of the way. 405 AB exec seats Baltic and Cirrus

I agree that AGM is probably what is fitted. My 2011 car has AGM.

It'll be an AGM battery so yes, use the AGM setting on your CTEK and connect to posts in the engine bay. Kev

All JLR batteries have been AGM since circa 2009 guys |

Hi Craig - assuming its an OEM spec battery. Could it be possible to use a non-AGM replacement?

No sir it’s not, it’s designed for AGM use only sir… Quite what the outcome would be I’m unsure as I’m no Battery expert sir… |

Think it was 2011 when the switch was made to AGM ? my 2011 started with a normal battery and was switched out to AGM fairly quickly when early 2011's were all having battery issues. 2021 P400 Silicon Silver AB Gone 2011 Bournville TDV8 VSE Gone 2008 Black Canadian HSE LUX |
