    Well it may be a new battery i need , 11.6v with no load first thing in the morning. Knackered glow plugs have taken there toll.

    Need help with what battery to buy. The one i want is 353mm long, but i have been told this will not fit.

    My oem battery is approx l 310 w 170 h 190 and that looks snug

    My car is a yr2000 A6 2.5tdi quattro, so similar but not sure if same as your allroad regarding dimensions. Doesn't look like you'd get any more than about 15mm
    increase in length in the battery tray so don't think it would take that bigger battery.

    Mine has this one currently fitted. S5 010 Bosch Car Battery 12V 85Ah Type 110 S5010 - Car Batteries - Bosch Car Batteries
    Which seems the same as your current one regarding size.

    Your 11.6v would appear to be at the end of the road. Mine starts instantly on the above having no rpm fluctuation or misses/dropouts.

    Having done loads of reading on this it seems i may modify the battery tray to take the larger battery. (353mm length) height / width will be fine. I can get an exide premium 100ah / 900 cca for £89 delivered.

    I will remove the tray and modify, clean out drains underneath. Then i may just use a good quality can buckle tie down to secure battery to the tray
