## Frequently asked questions

### How do I know if the E38 model fits my car?

Three ways: 1) enter your number plate in the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA auto-detect your model and engine); 2) check the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, where we list every vehicle verified by our technical team for the E38; 3) if you cannot find your model, message us on WhatsApp with brand, model, engine and year — we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 9:00–18:00 CET).

### How is the Varta E38 battery installed in the vehicle?

In most cars it fits in 15-30 minutes with a 10 mm wrench; if the battery is under the seat or in the boot the time can double. See the step-by-step guide on this page. Quick summary: 1) switch off the engine and remove the key; 2) locate the original battery (engine bay, boot or under seat); 3) disconnect the negative (−) terminal first, then the positive (+); 4) loosen the hold-down clamp and remove the old battery; 5) fit the new one in the same orientation — match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−). On cars with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.

### What warranty does the Varta E38 battery have?

We provide 2 years of official manufacturer warranty against manufacturing defects. It applies to defects such as damaged cells, internal short-circuits or abnormal capacity loss. Wear from misuse (prolonged overcharging, wrong charger or faulty alternator) is not covered. Once the defect is verified by technical inspection, we replace the E38 at no cost.

### How long does Varta E38 delivery take?

In mainland Spain and Portugal it arrives in 24 h if you order before 17:00 and the battery is in stock — it leaves the same day and arrives the next business day. Afternoon or weekend orders ship the next business day. For Balearics, Canaries and other EU destinations, allow 2-5 days. Shipping cost is calculated in the cart based on destination and service (standard, express, cash on delivery). Tracking number is sent by email + SMS as soon as the parcel ships.

### Can I return the Varta E38 battery if it doesn't fit or doesn't work?

Yes. You have 14 days from delivery to return it. In mainland Spain and Portugal returns are FREE — we cover the return shipping cost via prepaid label. In other EU countries the return shipping cost is the customer's. It must arrive in its original packaging with no signs of installation. If it was defective, the warranty covers replacement even after the 14-day period.

### How much does the Varta E38 battery cost?

The current price at baterias.com is 68,68 € (VAT not included), updated every 24 hours. The applicable VAT is calculated in the cart and depends on the destination country of the shipment.

If you choose at-home installation, our technician will take the used battery and dispose of it through an authorised collection point.

### How long does the Varta E38 battery last?

Expected lifespan of the Varta E38 is 3 to 5 years in regular car use without Start-Stop. In cold regions it drops slightly due to cold-start stress; in very hot regions it also drops because of electrolyte evaporation. To extend its life: avoid deep discharges (headlights on with engine off), have the alternator checked yearly, and keep the battery clean and properly secured.

### What size is this battery?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 278×175×175 mm — also written as 278x175x175 mm and correspond to the European LB3 case size — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your car before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.

### How much does the Varta E38 battery weigh?

It weighs 17,4 kg. Most of the weight is lead. If you plan to fit it yourself, use gloves and a carrying strap (AGM batteries are slightly heavier than conventional due to the absorbent glass-mat fibre).

### What is the capacity and CCA of the E38 model?

Nominal capacity 74 Ah[?cca: and [cold-cranking amps 750 A]] at 12 V. Ah measure the total energy available (autonomy); CCA (also written A in cold or EN under the European standard) measure the instantaneous power to crank the starter motor. A battery with more CCA starts better in winter; one with more Ah keeps accessories on for longer.

### What ETN and EAN codes does the Varta E38 battery have?

The manufacturer reference (MPN) is E38 and its ETN code is 5744020753162 (short form 574 402 075), the European identifier used in spare-part catalogues. The EAN-13 barcode is 4016987167410. It belongs to the VARTA SILVER dynamic range. Any of these codes identifies exactly this battery when requesting quotes or comparing prices.

### Which batteries are equivalent to the Varta E38?

Directly interchangeable batteries (same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and CCA) are the OEM equivalents from leading brands: Bosch, Tudor, Exide and, depending on the model, Banner or Yuasa. Exact equivalence depends on technology — an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop cars. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level.

### Is the E38 model better than its equivalents from other brands?

This battery and its equivalents from Bosch, Tudor or Exide are technically comparable: same dimensions, same voltage and same capacity. The differences are warranty (Varta and Bosch: 2 years; Tudor and Exide: 2 years on the equivalent line), manufacturing plant (Varta and Bosch share origin in the Clarios Group; Tudor and Exide belong to Stryten Energy) and price. For private use any of these brands will give 4-6 years of life. Compare them in the "Equivalents" section.
