Finally got the LH Battery put in today.... Had been putting it off for a few months. It went a lot better than I thought it would, all things considered.
Stated the battery was going bad, my thanks to Autonation for letting me get the inspection done and replacing the battery with a Varta AGM (I believe factory spec). Basically I love this car
I replaced mine with a higher capacity Varta 44ah 420cca battery, never had a flat since
Varta B33 Location: Right Trunk under Taillight
Thx everyone, in the end I found a Varta B23 on discount, which is slightly bigger and slightly stronger (45AH) and fits.
I’d go for Vatra. Massively popular in Finland where it often gets lower than -30 in winters. I had mine on an F10 and the car was stationary for 2 weeks with average temp of around -15 degrees. Zero problem
Acum recent am schimbat bateria la mașină, am dat în jur de 530 de lei, baterie de la Varta. Eu am optat pentru varianta la 530 că am renunțat la funcția start-stop, altfel costa aprox. 800 de lei. Cel puțin din experiența personală, este o marcă super oke dpdv al raportului calitate-pret. Înainte de schimb tot Varta am avut, bateria originală de când a ieșit din fabrică (2013)
VW OEM batteries in modern cars often do that. I was lucky to detect slightly "lazy" cranking in my 2018 GSW 4Mo. Tested and showed %51 SOH even after fully charging it. Lasted 6 years almost to the date.
My cousin has a 2018 Atlas and a month ago he called me and said he car wouldn't start. It'd just rapidly click. So I drove over there and gave him a jump. Still wouldn't start. So I thought maybe it's the starter motor. Called a bunch of repair shops and they said the battery is dead and needs to be replaced.
I've got an essentially new Golf R only about 3 months old and I think my battery is no good. I keep it connected to a battery tender as I dont'drive it often. Even after a week of being connected it never reaches full charge. Also, After I discomnect I put a quick load on it by turning on the lights in order to remove the surface charge from the battery tendder. Prior to putting the load on and just after disconnecting the battery tender the rading is 12.8Votls. After putting the load on by turning on the lights for a minute the voltage reading then drops to 12.28 which seems awfully load. I'm assuming my battery is no good.
