can anyone recommend somewhere to go for a new battery for the T5.
Had a look on web and they range in price drastically.
All i need is a good battery at a good price.

Thanked 1,393 Times in 1,068 PostsThis is the battery I got in my R....
Comes with 5 yr warranty, 780cca and a bargain at £82!!
Will drop straight in and fill the battery tray completely on your T5.

Thanked 2,408 Times in 1,497 PostsI remember certain batteries used to carry a Lifetime Guarantee (with conditions lol) .... GM batteries used to. Maybe worth looking in to.
Bosch gets the thumbs up from me too!!

Thanked 1,581 Times in 1,296 PostsThe holder in the boot has two different holes depending on what size battery volvo fitted, it would be worth fitting the the larger capacity.
The battery I fitted to the S60 was one of these .
