For 1996-2007, it appears Ford settled on:

  • 58r as standard equipment for the Vulcan and Flex Fuel engines
  • 36r as standard for DOHC/Duratec and an upgrade option for Vulcan & Flex Fuel
  • 36r as standard for all engines starting around 2004
Keep in mind this tips:
1. Should be listed under "specifications" in your owner's manual.
2. Your parts store can look it up, sizes are standardized. Capacity within that size can vary widely. Generally the longer the warranty the better the battery (higher capacity) and the greater the cost.
3. Any Ford dealer should be able to tell you with a phone call too.
4. There should be a label on your present battery with the size and rating.

Hope this helps (remember to rate and comment this).

Battery was dead this morning.then jumped it off.gmc 2002 denalli 6.0 then said reduced engine power on message center

Dead batteries can cause all kinds of goofy things to happen. Computer systems do not like it much when they get starved for power and can set all kinds of codes that may make the the thing operate in reduced power mode. This simply means that the computer is limiting engine RPM because of some problem that it "thinks" it has. Again, low power makes computers delirious....they can think all kinds of false things. The fix would be to make sure your battery and charging system is in good operating condition. (Did the battery go dead for obvious reasons like lights left on? or is it worn out and needs to be replaced?) Once the battery and charging system has received a clean bill of health, you may need to reset all of your computer memories - you may have to reset ALL modules. i.e.airbag, body control, antilock brake, air suspension, etc.

What kind of Battery does it Need?

You can buy a battery at an autoparts store or even some department stores which feature autorepair (walmart,sears) or even some shopping clubs (BJ's). Batteries become more expensive as you go from 48 months to 60-72 months and so on.

Look for a battery which has at least 800 cold cranking amps. Wherever you buy the battery will have a catalog to ensure the new battery fits your car. Take a quick look under the hood to see where the battery posts are positioned. i.e. POS right front, POS left front, POS left back This will make things easier when installing the new battery. I hope this answers your question. Best of luck.

Battery drained completely BMW E90 2005 model

Connect your old battery with another battery from another car (WHILE KEEPING ALL CABLES CONNECTED ON BOTH CARS) just user a bridge cable otherwise you'll need. a code to reactivate your BMW again. Try now to start your BMW engine. Now go to the nearest battery dealer to change the battery WHILE KEEPING YOUR ENGINE ON, otherwise you'll need a code to activate your BMW again :)

Good Luck!
