Battery Bosch or OEM KIA

I bought a Bosch 48-700B from Pep Boys. The guy that helped me knew a lot about batteries and looked up the right one in the computer without any problem.

Bosch battery from Pep Boys here in Raleigh, NC was $89. A couple lights were on the dash after I replaced it, and I called the dealer. They said after driving about 50 miles or so, all the electronics reset themselves. With tax, it cost me $96 and about 15 minutes to change the battery.... The Bosch battery I bought was actually a couple lbs lighter than the factory A4 battery as well...

You can also pick up a Bosch battery that fits for around $120 at Pep Boys. I changed out the battery on my 02 about 6 months ago and other than waiting a day for the power windows to reset there was nothing else that needed resetting.

I bought a Bosch for my car. Size 47. 600CCA at 0F, 750 at 32F (Part # S5531B) It's starts the car fine, but if the car has been sitting in the deep cold for 2 days.... it cranks a bit slow.

Now...my new Bosch battery I just bought for my 91 GTI...that thing is a POS. I should have bought an optima
