A. The PM078 is a Type 078 fitment battery suitable for a range of petrol and diesel vehicles that require a 12V 60Ah battery with 540A CCA (EN). You should verify compatibility against your vehicle's handbook or existing battery label before purchase, as fitment depends on case size, terminal position, and electrical specification.
A. No. The PM078 is a standard lead-acid automotive battery and is not suitable for vehicles equipped with start-stop (idle stop) systems. Start-stop applications require an AGM or EFB battery technology. Fitting a standard battery to a start-stop vehicle may result in premature battery failure.
A. The PM078 measures 243mm in length, 175mm in width, and 190mm in height including the terminal. It weighs 13.9kg. Please confirm these dimensions are compatible with your vehicle's battery tray before ordering.
A. The PM078 features Terminal Position 1, which places the positive terminal at the front-left when viewed from above. The polarity configuration is standard (Polarity 1, positive left). Please confirm this matches your vehicle's cable routing before purchase.
A. The PM078 uses a B13 hold-down configuration. This refers to the ledge or foot type used to secure the battery within the vehicle's battery tray. Please verify that B13 is compatible with your vehicle's retaining system.
A. The PM078 is housed in an L02 case and cross-references to the 078 battery group. This group designation is commonly used to identify compatible replacement batteries across multiple manufacturers. If your existing battery is marked 078, the PM078 is a direct fitment equivalent subject to terminal and hold-down confirmation.
A. The PM078 is covered by a 3-year manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions. Warranty claims arising from misuse, incorrect fitment, or use in start-stop vehicles would not be covered.
