I spoke with Porsche Monterey and they told me the 80ah is used for cars with the Nav-systems.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello everyone, been awhile on the site and even longer for the baby in the garage. Went to Stevens Creek Porsche for a new Battery. Part #999-611-070-20? When I got home I have a 999-611-080-00! It seems the difference is the 70ah VS, the 80ah. What is that going to affect if anything? Thanks.

POST 3Original post

Both are approved batteries for the Carrera. A 70 ah battery should be fine in Hollister, CA (about 20 miles South of my house).

POST 4Original post

why spend so much for an OEM porsche battery which drains so quickly and will probably be bad in 2 years. Why not get an optima or something for less? Bobby

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Loren, thanks for the input. I spoke with Porsche Monterey and they told me the 80ah is used for cars with the Nav-systems. Also, Porsche no longer makes the 80ah, replaced with the 75ah. Furthermore, the .070.20 ships DRY from Porsche and the dealer fills it with ACID! So we're on the road today !!!!

POST 6Original post

Bobby, I have a 98 build 996. Original battery still under the plastic cover. I am using the trickle charger from Porsche. I cannot believe it myself.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I too picked up the trickle charger from the dealer, hence adding more to the bottom line price for the battery as chi pointed out. The point from the dealer however was this, not only should you NOT run other batteries due to the fact that they don't fit real well, Monterey pointed out the P-car system needs a more "STABLE" power source and the after markets do ok for cranking amps, put could potentially cause alt problems and induce whine into the vehicle. Just the messanger !
