Battery AC DELCO or Duralast

Duralast Battery

You need this one, and it takes about 10 minutes to install. Just hop into the front trunk, unbolt the bar from the firewall that braces the battery -- iirc 13mm. Remove the tire inflator and the box (pulls right out), remove the other bolt, unscrew the two terminals (10mm probably), swap batteries. Done.

Pros: easy to install, 10 minutes
Vehicle: Porsche Cayman

AC DELCO Battery

I’ve had an AC Delco marine battery in my 67 Jeep that soldiered on for 12 years, and an “Autocraft” battery in my parent’s car that has finally given up after seven.

Pros: soldiered on for 12 years
Cons: finally given up
Vehicle: Jeep

AC DELCO Battery

I started buying AC Delco, probably now made in Korea. Anyway, 9 years in my Kia Spectra, 7 years in our rarely driven ‘02 Accord, has another in there from a year or two ago. One that was in my wrecked Cobalt, still works but is sitting. Now one for the Cavalier that had a two year old premium Everstart. The place I get the AC Delco batteries from sells a lot of them so they refresh their inventory. And they are also cheap with my business account. Was $120 for the last one, got the better option they offer. But most have been under $90. Although prices have gone up everywhere throughout various product. Just saying, for whatever reason they have been the only ones I didn’t have to warranty out every 2-3 years. Maybe I’m just getting lucky with them for the last 12-13 years. But I got tired of SuperStart and Everstart batteries that I used to go for. Duracell had been good in customer vehicles.

Pros: lasted 9 years, lasted 7 years, don't need warranty

Just had a 5yo Napa battery die, put a new Duralast Platinum Elite in there, back to running normal except 2 things: 1/ Random engine fan activation seems to be what killed the previous battery. Still happening.

Pros: back to running normal
Cons: random fan activation, battery died

Duralast Battery

Last December, the OEM battery died and I replaced it with a new Duralast battery from AutoZone. Fast forward to today, the car wouldn\u2019t start at all. Had to jump it just to get it running and drove straight to AutoZone to get it tested.\n\nBattery tested good. Starter tested good.\nBut the alternator failed, specifically the charging current test.

Cons: alternator failed charging test
