I am sure the 069 and the 072 the battery terminals are on the wrong side (back to front) for an Audi application

ok what shall it be then come on guys fire some codes up what you got in your cq thanks brian now even more confused

The only reason I know the 069 and 072 is that they are the standard fitment on a discovery.

I will have to dig out the number I used on my S2 tomorrow
