Hi, looking to get a new starter battery for my petrol 2L. Anyone know what minimum CCA I should go for? Thanks

Thank you. From looking at these I notice one of them is 580 CCA - so I’m guessing anything 580 and above would be powerful enough, is that right do you think?

Yes it varies with engine type diesel requiring the highest CCA and the 2l petrol the smallest.
