The above versions of the VW T-Roc are equipped with a Start-Stop system, and in this case, we should use batteries made with EFB technology. The dimensions of batteries suitable for 1.0 TSI (81 kW), 1.0 TSI (85 kW) and 1.5 TSI ACT (110 kW) engines vary slightly among different manufacturers and are: 242x175x190 mm or 243x175x190 mm. The parameters of these batteries are at least 60 Ah of a capacity and 560 A CCA (Cold Cranking Amps). All of the above motors have a base hold-down B13.
The VW T-Roc gasoline engines mentioned above are equipped with a Start-Stop system, and in this case, it means there is a need to use batteries produced using EFB technology. Matching batteries have dimensions 278x175x190 mm. The parameters of these batteries are at least 70 Ah of a capacity and 650 A CCA (Cold Cranking Amps). All the batteries in the list above have a base hold-down B13.

One response to “VW T-Roc (from 2017) – batteries”
In the VW T-Roc, as with most modern cars, changing the battery isn’t as straightforward as in older models. However, it’s still a task that an experienced DIY enthusiast can accomplish with a basic tool kit. Keep in mind that modern cars have complex electronic systems, so exercise caution not to damage sensors or other components during the replacement.
In the VW T-Roc, the battery is typically located under the hood, at the front on the right side (looking from the driver’s perspective facing forward). The replacement process usually goes as follows:
* Ensure the car is turned off and the key is out of the ignition.
* Disconnect the negative and positive battery terminals. Always start with the negative (black) terminal – this is important to avoid short-circuits.
* Unscrew and remove any brackets or frames holding the battery in place.
* Lift and remove the old battery. Be careful as they can be heavy!
* Insert the new battery, making sure it is oriented correctly (positive to positive, negative to negative).
* Reattach all brackets or frames.
* Connect the terminals to the battery, starting with the positive (red) and then the negative (black).
* Check that all connections are tightly secured and that the battery is firmly in place.
After finishing the replacement, it’s also a good idea to start the car and ensure all electronic systems are functioning correctly. In some cases, after a battery change, you might need to reprogram some of the car’s functions or reset the clock or radio.
If you’re unsure about the process, always consult your car’s owner manual or delegate the replacement to a specialist.
