More detail

A set of leads for a compatible car and a second vehicle. Buyers report successful jump starts and find the length useful. Check both vehicle manuals first.

  • Rating and size: MP3515. Engines up to 3 litres, 15 mm² copper-coated aluminium cables. The shop lists 3 m length and stop/start compatibility. The maker now lists 2 m for the same model. Confirm the supplied length. Source
  • Clamps and storage: Insulated, colour-coded clamps and a carry bag. Shop code 589HP. Check the clamps can reach the approved connection points. Source
  • Length discrepancy: The current maker page describes MP3515 as 2 m; some of its older images say 3 m. The shop offer says 3 m. Ask the shop to confirm the supplied version and that it reaches both connection points. Source

Why this one

A set of leads for a compatible car and a second vehicle. Buyers report successful jump starts and find the length useful. Check both vehicle manuals first.

What was found

What owners report

Several buyers report starting cars successfully and find the length useful. One found the large clamps hard to attach in a small battery space. These reports do not prove compatibility with your car.

Limits and cautions

  • You need a suitable donor vehicle and the correct connection sequence. Do not improvise around the vehicle instructions.
  • For engines up to 3 litres only. A shop compatibility claim does not override either vehicle manual.
  • Do not jump start a damaged or frozen battery. Do not use an electric or hybrid vehicle as a donor unless its maker expressly permits it.
  • The shop and maker disagree about length. Confirm the supplied length and clamp access before ordering.
