Q 1. What does EFB stand for and how does it differ from a standard car battery?

A. EFB stands for Enhanced Flooded Battery. It is a development of the conventional flooded lead-acid battery, incorporating a polyester scrim layer bonded to the positive plate to improve active material retention. This construction delivers significantly higher cyclic stability and faster recharge acceptance, making it suitable for vehicles fitted with start-stop systems, where frequent engine-off and restart cycles would rapidly degrade a standard battery.

Q 2. What are the key specifications of the Lucas LE115 battery?

A. The LE115 operates at 12V with a capacity of 80Ah (C20 rating) and a Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) rating of 730A to the EN standard. Its physical dimensions are 315mm long × 175mm wide × 190mm high including terminals. The battery weighs 21.8kg, uses a Type 1 terminal, hold-down type B13, and is supplied in an L04 case with polarity 0.

Q 3. What is the OEM or cross-reference number for the LE115?

A. The Lucas LE115 carries the OEM cross-reference code 115EFB and the DIN reference 580 190 073. These codes can be used to verify compatibility with your vehicle manufacturer's original battery specification.

Q 4. What warranty is provided with the Lucas LE115?

A. The Lucas LE115 is covered by a 3-year warranty. This reflects Lucas Automotive's confidence in the build quality and cyclic durability of the EFB construction. For warranty claims or queries, contact PartsForMachines with your proof of purchase.

Q 5. Can the Lucas LE115 be used as a replacement for an AGM start-stop battery?

A. No. An EFB battery should only be used as a direct replacement for another EFB or standard flooded battery. If your vehicle was originally fitted with an AGM battery, it must be replaced with an AGM battery. Fitting an EFB in place of an AGM may result in insufficient cyclic performance and could cause electrical system issues, as AGM-equipped vehicles typically have more demanding energy management requirements.

Q 6. What vehicles does the Lucas LE115 typically fit?

A. The LE115 is a large-segment EFB battery commonly fitted to a wide range of European passenger cars requiring an 80Ah start-stop battery in the L04 case size with Type 1 terminal and polarity 0. Typical applications include mid-to-large saloons, estates, and SUVs from manufacturers such as BMW, Audi, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, and Volvo, among others. Always verify fitment against your vehicle's battery specification before ordering.

Q 7. Are there other Lucas EFB batteries available if the LE115 does not fit my vehicle?

A. Yes. The Lucas EFB range includes several related SKUs covering different capacities and case sizes, including LE017, LE020, LE068, and LE110. These variants offer a broad spread of fitment profiles for start-stop passenger cars. Full specifications for each model are listed on the individual product pages.

Q 8. How should the Lucas LE115 be installed and are there any precautions to observe?

A. Installation should follow the vehicle manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the ignition and all electrical loads are off before disconnecting the old battery. Always disconnect the negative terminal first and reconnect it last. After fitting the LE115, some vehicles with advanced battery management systems may require a battery registration or coding procedure using a compatible diagnostic tool to ensure the charging system is calibrated correctly for the new battery. Consult a qualified technician if unsure.

Q 9. What are the delivery and returns terms for the Lucas LE115?

A. Standard delivery is 1–3 working days within the UK mainland. A 30-day returns policy applies. Please ensure the battery is unused and in its original packaging to qualify for return. Contact PartsForMachines for return authorisation prior to sending any item back.

Q 10. Is the Lucas LE115 compatible with my start-stop vehicle?

A. The LE115 is purpose-built for passenger cars equipped with start-stop technology, including those with regenerative braking and brake energy recuperation systems. To confirm fitment, check that your vehicle requires an 80Ah EFB battery in a L04 case (315mm × 175mm × 190mm) with a Type 1 terminal layout and polarity 0 (positive terminal on the left). Always cross-reference against your vehicle handbook or consult a fitment guide before purchase.
