New battery with less CCA?

jnu · 01-10-2021, 08:46 AM

I had an Indy mechanic replace the battery in my F15 35d. The original battery was 950 CCA, and they put in one with 850 CCA. Is this a problem? I frequently drive in cold weather and am worried about starting power.

The more CCA you have the more power that battery can deliver on extreme cold conditions. If you live in an area that gets below 0 temperatures, your going to need it.
