Battery Varta or OEM Volvo
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)
Depending on the year/model of the car you might need to have the battery "registered" using a special tool after installing it.
Varta blue 60ah de pe emag acum 3 ani jumate, fara startstop, 275 lei. Inca e bine in parametri, am o jucarie in bord care imi arata voltajul non stop.
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.
The factory battery is rubbish though. So get a better branded battery - varta or Bosch are good.
I have a friend who bght volvo XC-90. He had horrible experience with the battery in just couple of weeks and had to replace it as part of warranty.
I have the same problem! Overcharging - 14,9V. Had AGM Varta, I put new Acid Varta and recoded to Lead Acid battery. But there is no difference - charges 14,9V, I think, this is too much!
