Battery Energizer or OEM Volvo
Duracell lasted 18 months on my RMR 3.25 Type 2 on auto setting, Energizer lasted 23 months on same setting!
Having ran both Duracell procell, and Energizer lithiums in RMR's, the energizers last 3+ years. I've gotten 2-2.5 years out of Duracell.
Depending on the year/model of the car you might need to have the battery "registered" using a special tool after installing it.
Just do it yourself or find an independent shop.
So on P3 cars, this light appears incredibly often. But since you’re at the point of your car not starting, you need a battery.
You don’t need to program anything to install a battery.. 2019 s90 if u want to save some money make sure u have the correct battery install at your local service center
Funny enough I also have an 18 Elantra and had my battery replaced recently from Costco. What I got was a:
- H6-AGM
- 760/120/70 cold crank amps/reserve capacity/amp hours respectively
Well my Volvo dealership wanted $400 for a battery so yeah... It's the small things that cost the most at dealerships, maybe as a way to lessen to cost of bigger jobs so you're not paying tens of thousands for a major job.
I had an Volvo XC90 hybrid. The car is ok, but the battery/motor part is garbage. It has a 10kwh battery, but can only drive for 18 miles on battery, the energy efficiency is way low than my model X.
It's not only Energizer, its also whatever cheap brand I have. Might be a law, I think.
I do hate them, either cutting your fingers or have the cell fly out like a chemical saucer.
