Recoding the battery to a different size and type is divided into two categories: Lead-Acid and AGM. The car's Vehicle Order (VO) must be reprogrammed that tells the car what battery it has installed. The available VO coding options understood by the car's modules only allow you to go from Lead Acid 90 Ah down to 46 Ah or the AGM options are 70, 80, and 90 Ah. The car cannot be coded by adding a made-up "-A040" code to the VO and writing the VO to the CAS and FRM/NFRM modules because that line of code simply does not exist. You are forced with choosing the "-A070" for the 70 Ah AGM option. "B" represents wet-cell (lead acid), while "A" represents AGM (glass mat) in the VO. E B046 BATT_46AH //46 Ah-Batterie E B055 BATT_55AH //55 Ah-Batterie E B070 BATT_70AH //70 Ah-Batterie E B080 BATT_80AH //80 Ah-Batterie E B090 BATT_90AH //90 Ah-Batterie E A070 BATT_AGM_70AH //70 Ah-AGM Batterie E A080 BATT_AGM_80AH //80 Ah-AGM Batterie E A090 BATT_AGM_90AH //90 Ah-AGM Batterie The ultimate goal is to make sure you are using the lowest AGM Ah setting you can that still registers correctly in ISTA when you go to register the battery. I've attached a link below to the bible of this topic. Option #5 shows how to do it correctly using NCSExpert and not a more "basic, user friendly" software like Carly or ProTools. That gives you the most ground level understanding of what is happening behind the scenes when using ProTools or Carly. https://www.1addicts.com/forums/show....php?t=1338304

H6 (or H7) sizes are physically smaller, and now being used when people are switching to super lightweight Lithium Ion batteries. You can save 40-45 pounds of weight by going from your H8 AGM to an H6 Lithium battery. Your wallet gets lighter too because they are expensive!

I believe you need Bimmerlink to register a battery that is being replaced "in kind" (i.e. same Ah rating)
Bimmercode has the ability to also code a battery that has different Ah capacity So depends on what battery you’re replacing it with, but it should be an option in the app (I used bimmerlink) |

Bought an Odyssey from FCPEuro a year ago and still holding strong. Also replaced my alternator as it decided to call it quits. Recent reviews coming in don't sound kosher, but my own experience has been positive so far. Cranks right up even in the dead of winter, used to take a few cranks more on my previous replacement battery (a no name brand my old shop sold me on, which did work well enough for 8 years). Most of the weird error codes i got before replacing have gone away.

E9X can use the Antigravity H6 battery or H8 size, since the hold down clamp is adjustable. Both batteries are same CCA, just package size is different.
