As you can see, in case of Mazda 6, even the basic parameters of the batteries (battery layout, terminal types and base hold-down) are not identical for all engine versions. For this reason, care must be taken to match the battery to a specific engine.
The above versions of the Mazda 6 are equipped with a Start-Stop system, and in this case, we should use batteries made with EFB technology. Dimensions of matching batteries differ slightly depending on the manufacturer and are 230x173x222 mm, 232x173x225 mm, 242x175x190 mm or 243x175x190 mm. The parameters of these batteries are at least 60 Ah of a capacity and 520 A CCA (Cold Cranking Amps).
These diesel engines should work with batteries of dimensions 306x173x222 mm or 306x173x225 mm, which capacity is minimum 92 Ah. The most basic battery of this set is Exide Excell EB954 of a capacity 95Ah and 720A Cold Cranking Amps, the battery with the biggest capacity is Varta Blue Dynamic G7 of a capacity 95 Ah, having 830A Cold Cranking Amps.
