Battery Duracell or OEM BMW
The entire suspension was recently replaced with German parts, along with a full upgrade of rotors and low-dust ceramic pads on all corners and a new Duracell battery a few months ago.
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I replaced mine with a Duracell branded battery from Batteries Plus. Direct fit, vent tubes connected right up.
Pros: direct fit, vent tubes connected
Threw a Duracell 12v in my second gen Honda Insight, and it did fine for the six additional months I had the car.
Pros: worked fine
Vehicle:
Honda Insight
I got an already fully charged duracell battery at my local Batteries and Bulbs location in California. Works like a charm just needed to get top posts for it to work in the i3.
Pros: works like a charm
Vehicle:
BMW
Replaced with: Duracell Ultra Platinum AGM Battery SLI49AGM
Vehicle:
Porsche 911
Part number: SLI49AGM
For about a month I have owned a 2016 REx whose 60 Ah battery is supposed to get 72 miles. This week I fully charged it and have been commuting four four days without topping up. Today the REx kicked in with the trip meter at 73.3 miles. This was a mixture of city traffic jams and short bursts on the carriageway, mostly with the air con on and mostly in Comfort mode. So I'm pretty pleased.
Pros: good range, satisfactory performance
Vehicle:
BMW
Standard sealed lead acid batteries from duracell will work great for several years.
Pros: work great for years
I am still on my original battery in my 2007 335i w/ 87k miles.
Pros: original battery, 87k miles
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 139200 km
Just used Duracell. We will see how long they last.
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
Pros: watched movie without dying
Cons: short lifespan, struggles to start, dims lights
