Battery Energizer or OEM Volkswagen

So now I will only use Energizer and Sanyo/Panasonic Eneloop bateries I use these rechargable ones in more expensive devices as they do not leek but have had great success with energizer and their max alkaline bateries both stored and in devices and none have leaked.

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.

I have a snap-on torque wrench and duracell keeps doing that, I switched over to energizer and it stopped.

Change it when it can no longer meat a battery test to spec, which has good margin before it starts causing issues, like freaked out ECU or hard starting.

OEM VW Battery lasted 7/8 years, despite me nuking it by foolishly leaving my lights on. Sad day.

I replaced the battery of my 18 SE this year and did not code the battery. I replaced it with an OEM one from VW’s parts department and had no issues

Mine crapped out at 34 months. I bought a new one from VW since they had a 5-year warranty on it and it's still going...

OEM battery died at 3 years old / 50,000km. Was tested and deemed defective and replaced for free. Replacement OEM battery is currently 3 years / 45,000km old and I'm a bit nervous on long trips this winter lol. I got it tested last month out of paranoia and it came back all good.

My cousin has a 2018 Atlas and a month ago he called me and said he car wouldn't start. It'd just rapidly click. So I drove over there and gave him a jump. Still wouldn't start. So I thought maybe it's the starter motor. Called a bunch of repair shops and they said the battery is dead and needs to be replaced.

I've got an essentially new Golf R only about 3 months old and I think my battery is no good. I keep it connected to a battery tender as I dont'drive it often. Even after a week of being connected it never reaches full charge. Also, After I discomnect I put a quick load on it by turning on the lights in order to remove the surface charge from the battery tendder. Prior to putting the load on and just after disconnecting the battery tender the rading is 12.8Votls. After putting the load on by turning on the lights for a minute the voltage reading then drops to 12.28 which seems awfully load. I'm assuming my battery is no good.
