Battery AC DELCO or Duracell
Currently I have ac delco batteries in every car I own. I work at a Cadillac dealership though so I get good prices on them and they're good batteries.
The old battery I had in mine was an AC Delco, model ACD41-60 (I'm guessing size 41, 60-month warranty). Sticker said 685 CCA, 330 for charge. It's raining outside right now and I don't have any pictures of the sticker for my current one. The Delco battery finally died after being 8 years old. It showed signs of aging and being weak for about 3 months before that, and then one of the cells shorted out, so it had about a 5-amp capacity.
In our shop we have found that the professional line of AC-Delco batteries seem to last the longest. I believe if you check the AC-Delco was what was installed at the factory in your Suzuki, and that lasted 7 years.
I'm a big fan of AC Delco batteries. Every one I've had has outlived the cars I've put them in.
But the best OEM batteries are definitely AC Delco, the GM ones. Routinely replaced them at 6-8 years, longest I ever saw was the original battery of a 97 Grand Prix that I replaced in early 2008.
get an acdelco group 47 battery fits perfect is the identical size as oem and is probably wayy cheaper than an oem, i paid 85 idk how much oem ones are
So ever since I put subwoofers in my car they seem to be killing my batteries. My original battery lasted about 2 years (car was barely used for these 2 years), battery after that lasted a year (replaced last summer), and now it seems as if my current battery is going. I wanted to grab food before going to work yesterday so I got some food at Mcdonalds and sat in my car for 20-30 mins eating and listening to music. I went to fill my car up with gas after work (gas station not even a mile away) and the car barely started, normally it turns over very quickly, you could tell the car was REALLY struggling due to battery (everything dimmed as well). This was at night so my headlights were on while I was filling up. At the beginning of summer I went to a drive-in and was able to watch an entire movie without my battery dying. The battery is a Duracell with 725 CCA and 890 CA @ 32F
