Find My Audi BatteryAudi vehicles often combine powerful engines with advanced electrical systems, multimedia, driver-assistance technology and stop-start functionality. Because of this, the correct replacement battery must match more than the physical dimensions. Battery technology, capacity, cold cranking performance, terminal position and hold-down all need to be suitable for the vehicle.
Our Audi battery finder uses vehicle application data to narrow down suitable Lucas batteries for popular Audi models including the A1, A3, A4, A5, A6, Q3, Q5 and Q7. Before ordering, always compare the recommended battery with the battery currently fitted to your car.

EFB batteries are designed for vehicles with less demanding stop-start systems. Where an EFB battery is fitted as standard, it should normally be replaced with an EFB or an approved upgrade.
Many modern Audi vehicles use AGM batteries to support stop-start operation, energy recuperation and higher electrical demand. If AGM is specified, avoid downgrading to a conventional flooded battery.
Many Audi models use battery energy management. After fitting a replacement battery, the vehicle may need the new battery to be adapted or registered using suitable diagnostic equipment. This allows the charging system to account for the battery's age, capacity and technology.
If the replacement differs from the original battery in capacity or technology, coding requirements can be more important. Always check the requirements for the exact model before fitting.
Our aim is to offer a competitively priced Audi battery without compromising on dependable starting power, warranty cover or the correct technology. A good-value battery should still be properly matched to the vehicle rather than chosen on price alone.
Use the Audi battery finder and select your model, year, engine and fuel type. Then compare the suggested battery dimensions, terminal layout and hold-down with the battery currently fitted.
Normally no. Where Audi specifies AGM, fitting a conventional battery can reduce service life and affect stop-start or charging-system performance.
Stop-start may be disabled when the battery charge level or condition is too low. Temperature, electrical demand and other vehicle conditions can also prevent the system from operating.
Battery position varies by model. It may be under the bonnet, in the boot or beneath a cover within the cabin or luggage area. Always check the owner's information for the exact vehicle.
