What is the battery model for the Buick Excelle?
2 Answers
Buick Excelle car battery model is 12V55AH. More information about car batteries is as follows: Car battery replacement considerations: 1. The warranty period for car batteries should be around 2 years. 2. First, measure with a high-frequency discharge machine or battery tester. Under a load current of not less than 110 amps, the minimum voltage should not be lower than 9.6 volts and should remain stable for 5 seconds. 3. If the voltage is below 9.6 volts but can remain stable for 5 seconds, it indicates over-discharge and should be recharged promptly. 4. If the voltage is below 9.6 volts and cannot remain stable for 5 seconds, rapidly dropping to 0 volts or close to 0 volts, it indicates a possible battery failure that may require replacement.
I've been driving a Buick Excelle for several years, and the most common battery model for most model years is the 12V 60Ah, with a typical CCA value around 550-600, such as the Exide EL700 or similar specifications. That time when my battery suddenly failed and the car wouldn't start, I went to the repair shop and found out that the manufacturer recommends using a Type 48 battery. After that, I learned to check regularly: use a multimeter to measure the voltage, and if it's below 12.4V, it's time to replace it, with an average lifespan of 3-5 years. To save money, I recommend buying a manufacturer-matched replacement; don't skimp and choose a smaller size, otherwise, you might face difficulty starting in winter or even damage the alternator. The replacement process is simple: first disconnect the negative terminal, clean any corrosion on the terminals, then install the new battery ensuring it's securely fastened.
