I put my optima in with no issues
Pros: no issues
A battery from VW was actually cheaper and had a better warranty than what Advance was trying to sell me. So I just bought the battery from the dealer, installed myself, then returned the old one for the core refund.
Pros: cheaper, better warranty
Since replacing my battery on 12/18 this code has not returned. The only symptom I've noticed is it appears my battery is going. When I start it in the morning it struggles and then is ok the rest of the day. However just leaving the radio on, without the car being on, for 20 mins or so will drain the battery and the car will barely turn over.
Pros: resolved code issue
Cons: battery drained quickly
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Mileage: 78960 km
I replaced mine also with the G14 and no problem at all, so it should work or your old battery broke becasuse of a defective module jorg
Pros: no problem at all
Cons: defective module
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Phaeton
Here is a picture of the left battery that the factory put in my W12 when it was new. As you can see, it is labelled both 'Varta DE' and 'VW AG'.

So I've been looking to replace the stock battery doesn't seem to hold a charge as well as before. Always wanted to put an Optima Yellow Top in it
Cons: doesn't hold charge well
Vehicle:

Optima batteries have slowly gone to shit since they were bought by Johnson Controls.
Cons: quality declined
Their batteries have never been great, and they've always failed prematurely for myself and several others.
Cons: never great, failed prematurely
