A. The Bosch S5A05 has a Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) rating of 680A measured to the EN standard, making it suitable for reliable cold-weather engine starting in vehicles with up to 2.0-litre petrol or equivalent diesel engines where the manufacturer specifies a 027AGM fitment.
A. Yes. The S5A05 is purpose-built for vehicles equipped with start-stop systems. Its AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) construction supports the frequent charge-discharge cycling and sustained electrical loads that occur during stop phases, which a conventional flooded battery cannot reliably handle.
A. The Bosch S5A05 measures 242mm in length, 175mm in width, and 190mm in height including the terminal. It weighs 17.35kg. Always verify these dimensions against your vehicle's battery tray and clamp clearances before ordering.
A. The S5A05 uses a Type 1 terminal post with a B13 hold-down configuration. The polarity is Layout 0, meaning the positive terminal is positioned on the left when viewing the battery from the front. Confirm this matches your vehicle's cable routing before fitment.
A. The S5A05 cross-references to Type 027AGM. This is a widely used fitment reference in UK and European vehicle applications. Check your existing battery label or vehicle handbook for the type designation to confirm compatibility.
A. The Bosch S5A05 is covered by a 3-year manufacturer warranty. In the event of a defect or failure attributable to manufacturing, the battery should be returned in accordance with PartsForMachines returns policy with proof of purchase for assessment.
A. Yes. The same battery family is also listed under SKUs LA007, FA123, and FA134 on the PartsForMachines platform. These variants may differ in packaging or supply routing but share the same core specifications. Customers with specific fitment requirements should verify dimensions and cross-references before selecting.
A. The S5A05 ships via standard parcel service with delivery in 1–3 working days to UK mainland addresses. A 30-day returns policy applies. Batteries must be returned unused and in original condition to qualify for a full refund. Contact PartsForMachines customer services to initiate a return.
A. In an AGM battery, the electrolyte is absorbed into glass fibre mats rather than existing as free liquid. This allows faster charge acceptance, greater tolerance of partial state of charge, improved vibration resistance, and maintenance-free sealed operation — All characteristics required by start-stop and regenerative braking systems.
A. A 30-day returns policy applies. Batteries must be returned unused and in original condition to qualify for a full refund. Contact PartsForMachines customer services to initiate a return.
A. If your vehicle does not have start-stop or regenerative braking, a standard Bosch S4 or S5 flooded battery of the equivalent type may represent better value for your application.
