I just purchased an Exide battery at Home Depot yesterday for my 2002 Jetta Wagon. It was only $109.99.....about $50 less expensive than anything comparable in any of the big 4 parts stores, locally. It also has the best warranty of all of them (3 year replacement).
Pros: best warranty, less expensive
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
OK so today I picked up a battery from EuroCarParts, not a pukka VW one but a 100AH Exide Premium one with 5 year warranty. I've had good luck with Exide before so I was happy to go with it
Pros: good price, 5 year warranty
Cons: pig to get in
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Phaeton
AGM power supply/comfort battery replaced. Overall it went without a hitch. I had the choice of an Exide or a Varta AGM from Tayna Baatteries. The Exide with a price discount was about \u00a310 cheaper than the Varta, so I chose that one at \u00a3133 delivered.
Pros: cheaper price, easy install
Cons: clamp back in position
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Phaeton
Next battery I am going to put in my Passat is going to be something made by Exide . I mentioned before that I changed my OE battery in the winter 2007-2008, was concerned with low temperatures of this winter, but battery seems to do very well, started at 9*F and still work without a problem.
Pros: battery seems to do well
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
I just got a new 47-36 battery made by Exide. The vent tube routes as Dr. Bob describes, and the clamps fit perfectly. My only issue with the new battery is that the vent caps are way at the back and may be hard to reach.
Pros: clamps fit perfectly
Cons: vent caps hard to reach
Part number: 47-36
installed new Exide EK950 AGM 95AH to replace same model been there 3years. No change, and also former battery checks to be in nearly new condition still with measured 90AH capacity from fully charged to 10,5v 9hours with 10Amp load.
Pros: nearly new condition
Cons: no change
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Phaeton
Part number: EK950 AGM
However, I have had nothing but bad experiences with Exide batteries. I've bought three, and all have died within 2 years.
Cons: died within 2 years
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
My Tiguan factory battery was an Exide and it failed after 2 years, mostly in the Northeast US weather.
Pros: failed after 2 years
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
