I am thinking of buying an odyssey batteries for my Elantra.
The one being sold has 545 cold cranking amps. My shop manual list mine at 550 or more?
Do you think it will be enough to keep me going?

I personally would get the 680 to be safe
you got a auto so you cant really push start the car
besides its like a 1 lb difference between the 2

It is only 5 amps below what my car calls for. do you think it would have any negative effect at all?
I am getting this one for $60 shipped, new. That is why I am trying to figure this out.
