i took the car in let him drain the battery and that was def dead. so we changed it and my car was beautiful, the lights didnt flicker at all.
I purchased a new oem battery today. The 12v 92ah AGM 850A EN/ SAE 520A. Hopefully this solves my current issue. I'll know a little better in the morning on my way to work. At least my key fob works from greater distances now.
clean battery post and wires reconnect them and ensure they aRe tight get the voltage tested for free at these automotive stores. 12v when not running, 14v when car is running.
OEM Volkswagen of America has the best battery for your Corrado. It's currently $110 and worth that ****. You look at the top of my battery, it says Manfacture Date December 2005. This thing has gone through hell and back. Everytime, it has cranked that starter with no issue.
i had my left side battery replaced about a year ago and i watched the shop (not a dealer) do it. the starter battery was not disconnected, the hardest part seemed to be lifting the battery out (fits tightley in there and isn't feather light).
Im running an Odyssey battery in my Corrado. Its new to me so I cant give long term feedback on the battery. But the battery doesnt have any lips on the bottom so it doesnt mount into the stock battery spot. Im still trying to figure out a way to mount it properly. Personally it cranked my car up faster then my old optima ever did. I like it and its got a 3 year warranty.
Same here. Mine is about half the size as Tachy's. Have mine in the spare tire well. No problems, other than giving it a charge when the car sits. I run a 400w amp too.
I have this one (or one very similar to it; forgot the model #). I have a metal sleeve/box that is slides into that is bolted down. Had it for over 3 years and it's still going strong.
Anyway, I bought a new battery and everything was fine for several months. Yesterday my car did not start again. I put a charger on the battery and it started this morning. However, this afternoon it would not start again. I charged it again and went and had the charging system and battery checked out (all good).
I ran an Odyssey mini battery in my weekend car, any longer than 2 weeks without driving would drain it. I wouldn't really recommend a mini battery for a daily, if your car doesn't start after 2-3 tries, you might be stuck lol.
