CS35 battery model is l2400r, and its specifications are: length 252mm, width 180mm, height 201mm. The function of the battery is: to store electrical energy and provide power for car starting, parking, ignition, lighting, signals, audio-visual equipment, and air conditioning. Taking the 2017 CS35 as an example, its body structure is a 5-door 5-seat SUV, the front suspension is MacPherson independent suspension, the rear suspension is torsion beam rear suspension, the body dimensions are: length 4170mm, width 1810mm, height 1670mm, the wheelbase is 2560mm, the minimum ground clearance is 180mm, the fuel tank capacity is 52l, the trunk capacity is 510l, and the body weight is 1340kg.

As a frequent long-distance driver, I just replaced the battery for my CS35 last year. The original battery was a 60Ah model 6-QW-60, which is just sufficient for the 1.6L engine. When replacing, pay attention to the battery size matching the base. I measured the original base to be about 28cm long, so you need to choose a product with an L2-400 type base. Some owners opt for a 50Ah battery to save money, but then struggle with cold starts in winter. It's recommended to choose a battery with a CCA rating above 550A, and brands like Fengfan or Varta are good options. If replacing it yourself, remember to disconnect the negative terminal first, then the positive, and after installation, use a diagnostic tool to clear any fault codes, otherwise the dashboard warning light may stay on. If you often drive short distances, it's best to recharge the battery with a charger every three months to extend its lifespan.

Having repaired cars for over a decade, I've replaced hundreds of CS35 batteries. This vehicle's original battery is a 12V 60Ah maintenance-free model with the marking 6-QW-60. Pay special attention to the parameters: cold cranking amps must exceed 550A, and the positive terminal is on the right side. I've encountered cases where owners incorrectly upgraded to 70Ah high-capacity batteries, only to find the alternator couldn't handle the load, resulting in constant power drain. In my opinion, choosing a maintenance-free battery with an inspection window is the most hassle-free option, and Camel brand offers good value. Always test alternator voltage during replacement - if it exceeds 14.5 volts, check the voltage regulator. As a reminder, never use boiling water to clean corroded battery terminals; applying battery terminal protector spray is the most effective solution.

After checking the manual for my 2018 CS35, the battery is specified as 12V 60Ah, model 6-QW-60. When shopping online, I found that e-commerce platforms recommend matching models by vehicle type for convenience, such as Camel's 55530 or Varta's 56318. Actual measurements show the original battery box size is 278×175×190 mm—choosing the wrong size won't fit. Owners with start-stop functionality should pay attention to EFB models. Last week, I helped a colleague test their battery; when the standby voltage drops to 11.6 volts on a multimeter, it's time for a replacement. Remember to reset the window anti-pinch function after replacement, as it requires relearning after power loss.

With a decade of experience in auto parts wholesale, the CS35 commonly uses two types of batteries: the standard version is equipped with 6-QW-60 (60Ah), while the high-end models with start-stop systems use Q-85. The key parameter to check is length—ensure you don't mistakenly purchase non-standard 278mm sizes. Recently, it has been observed that some aftermarket batteries with terminal positions offset by 1cm can lead to poor contact. It is recommended to choose batteries manufactured within the last six months, as those in stock for over a year may suffer a 30% performance drop. Northern users should pay special attention to the CCA rating—Heilongjiang drivers report that batteries below 500A fail to start at -25°C. After replacement, always tighten the mounting bracket securely, as loose fittings on bumpy roads can damage the battery base.
