Battery Exide or Duracell
Exide are great batteries and are a tier 1 supplier with Yuasa, Bosch, Varta.
I replaced the OEM battery in my low-mileage 2019 Alltrack S two days ago. (OEM battery was lead-acid 5K0 915 105 D, it was replaced with a Duracell Ultra Platinum SLI47AGM, 600 CCA.)
IMHO, Exide works well till the last second and then dies off without any symptoms. Amaron shows alot of symptoms like extra cranking and lights dim for interior and dash lights when it's nearing its demise. Hence I moved to amaron. So should you.
After reading all replies and knowing the price of the dealers option, I took my chance with a Exide battery AGM 12-23, it was a perfect fit.
Duracell flooded lead acid would be a good choice and around $200.
I bought Duracell from Sams club. relatively easy coding with OBD11
I don't think they are good at inverters, but I have used their battery for ups which lasted 4 years, now i am using the second one which completed one year
I’ve replaced several Duracell batteries recently that had been recently installed within the last few month. We’ve had good luck with power sonic, yusa, and first power.
I bought the battery last summer, drove the car around for about a month no problems.
I put the car away for autumn/winter.
Took it to auto parts store last night, checked in in the morning.
Employee brought it out, said it needed more time and put it back on "fast charger".
I come back 4hours later and they're telling me it exploded on the charger??
Left with exide crap.
