Battery Bosch or OEM FORD

Put a new Bosch AGM in.

Probably the easiest car to swap a battery on imo. Just remove and replace, negative off first. Bosch is good quality, but not required...Use 80Ah 12V.

I am using Bosch battery for my BMW, going through my 2nd, it lasts for 2 years+, less than 50% of the price of the dealership

Also the original equipment Bosch battery that came in my wife's 2006 TDI Golf when we bought it in 2015. The good ones aren't available anymore by the time they wear out.

My truck has a 4 or 5 year old Bosch in it, still works great.

Factory exhaust manifold cooling and Bosch battery.

A friend of mine had a 2010 ( or 2009 ) Fusion Hybrid that needed a new battery, he went to the dealer and he was quoted over $8K. He then found $3K 'aftermarket' batteries and at the end he was able to find a shop that did the whole thing for under $2.5K.

There is a known random issue with 400 packs. On mine, it is always when I turn on the bike. The speedometer doesn't come on and there is no assist. What I learned about on the internet is to push the test button on the battery with the bike turned on and it will reset and work just fine.

I've had a couple of issues with my BMW 5-series, I found Bosch batteries don't last as long as they should. I changed them twice in the span of 3 years or so, each time resetting the battery management system with the correct capacity. I changed it to a Deka Intimidator and I'm much happier with it.

I bought a Bosch battery from a respected online company in the UK. The only change I made was uprating from a 100Ah Varta I think the original was to a 110Ah Bosch S5 015 as I thought more storage would help as the car ages and things are naturally a bit more susceptible to failure. Battery lasted 3 years until about January/Feb 2024 when a cold snap hit and the battery just failed to hold a charge overnight.
