Battery Exide or OEM Mercedes

For my Tiago, car came with Exide. And it lasted 4 years.

Swift petrol 2017 model with AGS. The OEM Exide battery lasted until 2022 (5 years). I actually ruined the OEM battery by overfilling it with distilled water ????. Else, it might have lasted longer. Got a Bosch battery after that and it's still running with no issues.

Varta ist nur noch ein Name, Exide habe ich schon lange in Nutzung. Die erste nach 11 Jahren vorsorglich getauscht und die zweite ist jetzt schon seit 12 Jahren in Betrieb.

I have used exide battery+inverter for >10yrs and is still going good!

Amaron does last a whole lot longer than exide which just starts giving issues after warranty period. I had an issu in both my car and bike previously dues to exide. Switched to amaron once and did not give any issues till now.

Amaron all the way! I've always had to replace my exide batteries way before their actual expiry and their warranty claim is pathetic.

Ära Exide akusid osta, need hunnik sitta. Varta akud on okeid. Kui autol on start-stop süsteem siis peab kindlasti vaatama kas autol on EFB või AGM tüüpi aku ja vahetama sama tüüpi aku vastu.

I don’t have an AMG, but a 2024 CLA 200d and having battery drain problem is annoying to say the least and haven’t even had the car for a month when it all started happening. It’s been at the dealer for the past 3 days and no voltage drop there. They gave me the signal blocking key case and they upgraded the software and still can’t find the problem. Third visit in the month and new battery installed too.

same issue with daily driver 2021 E63. In this case though, the car doesnt give me a warning as much as the Mercedes app on my phone - it alerts to low battery -even critically low, but when I get into the car it starts and there is no message.

Got exide for KTM, it gave up right after warranty, switched back to amaron. The first amaron battery lasted for 3 years without any hiccups.
