My TT has an OPTIMA YELLOW TOP. Battery put in service date 12/2006 9 years on a battery in this heat...un freakin heard of! Very good value for down here.
Been running an optima in both my cars for years. Best decision ever.
Purchased a Red Top 35 today and it fits! I did have to take the bottom bracket and flip it so that the side of the battery facing the headlight [+ -] stayed secure.
I ended up buying a red top optima gel battery....expeeeensiiiive
In our shop we have found that the professional line of AC-Delco batteries seem to last the longest. I believe if you check the AC-Delco was what was installed at the factory in your Suzuki, and that lasted 7 years.
I'm a big fan of AC Delco batteries. Every one I've had has outlived the cars I've put them in.
I had a red top in my mk5 after the OEM one took a dump. It worked very well without any issues.
I had numerous Optima batteries in my car for about 12 years and the only reason I kept going with them was because they replaced it under warranty every time they went bad.
Their batteries have never been great, and they've always failed prematurely for myself and several others.
Optima is no longer the same quality as it was years ago due to outsourcing to Mexico
