FAQs for VW Amarok Battery Replacement

Can I use a 652 in the Amarok?

It fits but isn’t ideal if you run dual fridges/winches. We recommend the 658 or Exide 668P for better reserve.

Do you reinforce the battery bracket?

Yes, we check and replace bracket rubbers when needed to prevent vibration cracks.
