Ignore the below - I've answered my own question. So I'll do recode
I've just had to buy a new battery - well I probably could have dragged it out a bit longer, but the battery was reading 11.7V and struggling to spin the starter on a cold morning.
I've bought and fitted a Bosch S5 A08 096 AGM which is listed as a 70Ah capacity.
I've coded using 61 Battery Regulation > Long Adaptation Channel 04 and used the long coding.
I entered 068 VA0 (for Varta as there is no Bosch specific code and I gather it doesn't matter) and entered the last 10 digits of the serial number engraved into the side of the battery.
I used 068 rather than 070 as that seemed to be the full serial and I decided it's probably not 70Ah at all....
Do I need to go back and change it?
