What kind of battery does a VW Beetle need? The VW Beetle is an easy starting engine and needs only a low CCA rating of about 220; the VW engine, being a lowish compression engine, is relatively easy on batteries. What should the voltage be on a VW Charger? Disconnect the generator from the regulator (both the DF and D+ wires). Use a jumper lead to connect DF to the generator frame (grounding the DF connection). Now start the engine and test the voltage between D+ and the generator frame. The voltage should increase with rpm up to about 35...
