I guess you main the auxillary battery, right? I have the main battery in the back (to the right of the engine) that drives the car electrics and another one under the passenger seat for the fridge etc.

Does anyone know what the rating for the main battery is on a 1600 CC diesel?

Mine does not seem to be standard type, since it is fitted in a strange way. I would like to know how many amp-hours (correct term?) it is supposed to be.
