Default Battery Problem.... 640 amps or 650 amps for a '96 diesel A4??

1.9Tdi '96 A4:

My cars electronic system seems to be going haywire after having installed a new 640amp (12v) battery. I think it should have been 650amp. not sure?? anyone advise me on this? (Old battery didnt have info amp label.)

Thanks.

Default I doubt this is the problem

10 extra cranking amps when you start the car is not significant.It's voltage that is significant as electronics ahouldn't pull a lot of amps.Maybe check some of the grounds in and around the car.

on fitting a fair bit of ICE.

No problem with the elctrics.

its probably unrelated coincedence
