I’m on my 3rd 4Runner, they all came factory with the Panasonic battery. That damn thing wouldn’t quit till at least year 8.
Panasonic Eneloops for me all the way. Bit of an initial investment, but they work so well they're all I buy now for anything that needs batteries. They even kept my Pix running for almost 10 days!
We had a 2016 lexus with original Panasonic battery. in 2022 had to be replaced, thats 6years. In Arizona batteries last about 2 years. so that was nice.
Panasonic touring tires lasted me pretty good, but I don't skid much.
The OE Panasonic battery in my WRX died roughly 12 minutes after I bought the car. It was the original, so it was 9ish years old. Impressive.
My MY2007 S2000 also came with Panasonic battery. I replaced it with Walmart battery in last summer (2015), So it ran for 8 years.
Original factory Panasonic battery in my RX-8 lasted 7 years. The 'premium' Exide I replaced it with is on it's way out now after only 4 years.
When I bought my 2006 4Runner V8 three weeks ago, it had the original Panasonic battery on it's last leg and I had it replaced with a Toyota True Start battery. The 4Runner only had 109,600 miles when we had that battery replaced.
I tried my spare key, and the first time I used it, I got a weak battery warning. I never had that warning on the key I regularly use. I replaced both batteries, and still had the problem.
Just had to replaced my battery in my 2022 Mazda 3. I’ve always heard people say the batteries are crap in these cars. There’s no way you should be replacing a OEM battery yet. They use some crap Panasonic battery.
