A. The LA011 is designed primarily for vehicles equipped with start-stop systems, regenerative braking, and high-demand electrical loads. It is suitable for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles where the manufacturer specifies an AGM battery. Always verify compatibility against your vehicle manufacturer's specification before fitting.
A. The Bosch LA011 is rated at 950A CCA according to the EN standard. This rating reflects the battery's ability to deliver sustained starting current at low temperatures, making it suitable for high-displacement or performance engines as well as vehicles with significant electrical loads.
A. The LA011 measures 394mm in length, 175mm in width, and 190mm in height including the terminal. It weighs 29.4kg. These dimensions should be verified against your vehicle's battery tray dimensions and any clearance restrictions before purchase.
A. The LA011 features a Type 1 terminal post configuration with standard polarity (polarity code 0), meaning the positive terminal is positioned on the left when facing the battery from the front. Confirm this matches your vehicle's existing cabling layout before fitting.
A. The LA011 uses a B13 hold-down configuration. This refers to the ledge or fixing arrangement at the base of the battery case. Ensure your vehicle's battery tray and clamp system is compatible with the B13 specification to secure the battery correctly and safely.
A. AGM technology is the standard requirement for most OEM start-stop systems, and the LA011 is engineered to support this application. However, compatibility should always be verified against the vehicle's label or manufacturer documentation. Fitting an incompatible battery type may affect the vehicle's battery management system.
A. In most cases, an AGM battery can replace a flooded battery of equivalent specification, but this depends on the vehicle's charging system. Vehicles with AGM-compatible smart alternators are well suited to AGM replacements. If the original battery was AGM, you must replace it with AGM. Consult your vehicle manual or a qualified technician if uncertain.
A. Yes. Related variants include the S5A08 (PID000138392), S5A11 (PID000138393), S5A13 (PID000138394), and S5A15 (PID000138395), as well as the LA008 (PID000199746), LA009 (PID000199747), and LA010 (PID000199748). These cover a range of capacities and CCA ratings to suit different vehicle requirements.
A. The LA011 is supplied with a 2-year warranty covering manufacturing defects under normal operating and charging conditions. The warranty does not cover damage resulting from incorrect fitment, use with an incompatible or faulty charging system, physical damage, or use outside the battery's specified parameters.
A. Standard delivery is 1–3 working days within UK mainland. A 30-day returns policy applies. For full details on delivery options, surcharges for non-mainland addresses, and the returns process, please refer to the PartsForMachines delivery and returns pages at the time of ordering.
