My truck has a 4 or 5 year old Bosch in it, still works great.
Factory exhaust manifold cooling and Bosch battery.
I had my battery moment on my 2011 Outback, I bought a Duralast Gold 640 CCA and it's been working fine ever since.
I purchased 2 as a drop in replacement for an old 1400VA APC UPS.
I couldn't find the datasheet on the bosch website but I found out via a few online posts that these batteries are actually manufactured by Exide.
Just replaced a Duralast (Autozone?) yesterday in my Silverado. It was from 11/09. It had a pretty good run in several vehicles of mine.
Went to Autozone and purchased there Duralast platinum, full 5 year replacement warranty for around $145. I installed it myself and had to reset the windows. Great since.
At one time Bosch batteries had a terrible reputation but they now have their quality control back on track.
Some BOSCH batteries used on VW cars last around 2 years or a bit more but cost appropriately.
Aside from getting a defective Bosch battery that was replaced for fre I've never had a problem with either.
we see many 2 year old Duralast batteries that have failed.
