Best Battery for Volkswagen Jetta

Optima battery. They handle the cold much better.

My 2014 jetta TDI does the exact same thing as in your video when the battery is dying. I've had the car now for 6 years and it's happened 3 times. If the alternator checks out fine, then I would attempt a new battery.

OEM battery in my 2016 Jetta with 215k miles is still going strong.

I just purchased an Exide battery at Home Depot yesterday for my 2002 Jetta Wagon. It was only $109.99.....about $50 less expensive than anything comparable in any of the big 4 parts stores, locally. It also has the best warranty of all of them (3 year replacement).

I just upgraded to a yellow top optima n I'm one cable short on finishing the big three.

My Jetta is a 99 and I've replaced the battery once. The first lasted 6 years and the second is still going at almost 7 years. Unless I'm lucky factory batteries will last longer than store brand.

Currently I run a blue top marine battery, I hardly ever drive my jetta anymore. Will start up fine after sitting for weeks or even longer. Love it!

The stock VW battery in my Jetta was 380CCA, and it started on super cold mornings alot quicker/easier than this 600CCA Everstart ive got in there now.

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).
