What is the OEM/parts number for the Fiat Punto Evo 1.4 2010 stop/start battery?
I bought this one (Halfords EFB013/EFB027 Start/Stop EFB 12V Car Battery 5 Year Guarantee) from halfords recently but it turned out to be too short (190mm) so they refused to install it.
Context: I need to replace my car battery and have been having issues with finding the right replacement battery. The person I bought it from used a battery that was smaller than the OEM version, and they used some wood scraps which are placed under the strap to make sure that the battery stays snug and does not move about. I've driven the car as is and have had no issues so far , the battery recently ran out and I recharged it, and I now have to do so once every week or so.
Since I have owned it for going on 3 Years now, I know it's time to replace it. I would not be suprised if the person I bought it from installed a used battery rather than a brand new one (its my first car so im sure you can spot the rookie error - that said, i did manage to negotiate a lower price because I knew it was not a stop/start battery so it worked in my favour in the end).
Kinda getting desperate so would appreciate some comments. It may be too much to ask, but if you already have a stop/start installed, maybe check you battery parts no. and take and pic/comment the no. in response.
Thanks in advance.
