Whats up everyone im trying to figure out what cca rating my battery should be? I have called a few shops and all keep giving me different answers ranging from 575CCA TO 800CCA... Will i experience any problems if i go with 575 rather than higher? Does anyone know what lexus recommends it is? Thanks in advance...

 

i glanced at mine today was 700 i believe... any napa should be able to tell you.. or call lexus ...

 

Ya i thought 575 seemed pretty low. Thanks

 

No need to worry about Cold Cranking Amp from a battery....You reside in Cali, I know it barely gets super cold during the winter season so your car will not have any problems starting.

 

So the car doesnt need a specified amount of amps?

 

Most people don't look at the CA. As long as its above 500 CA you're good. I currently have a AAP Gold Summer battery with a 530 CA rating(similar to the standard Gold battery with 700 CCA). There's no way of knowing the CCA on mines which is not a big deal since I dont live in a state that gets super cold or snows. Had this battery for almost a year, still cranking up this 14 year old starter just fine.
