Battery ODYSSEY or OEM Subaru

Yes. Subaru batteries are hot garbage. Go third party all day. I stand by any AGM I can pick up at Autozone, since they stand behind the batteries they sell.

My dealer replaced the battery, updated the firmware and did a parasitic drain test.

My go to now is odyssey, though they are fairly pricy. If i dont have a choice, like when my battery literally [exploded](https://www.reddit.com/r/Justrolledintotheshop/comments/pqcbcm/i_sounded_like_a_shotgun/], i get optima.

I swear by odyssey batteries in particular the pc1500st

I've installed the Odyssey Extreme battery in my Outback. These are AGM with 99% pure lead, not the alloy. Best battery I've come across.

Any tips or advice before I fork out money for a new battery? I have some anxiety hoping its not the alternator dying, or less likely the starter. All things point to a slowly dying battery but I want a second opinion.

I have a 2019 Subaru outback. The battery dies every two months and I am left stranded.

The OEM battery sucks I upgraded mine to an AGM with an extra 100 or so CCA. A better battery will also let your auto start stop last longer. Stock battery would never last a stop light for while under load new battery gives me a lot more time even under load.

I installed the old battery after recharging it and it has been working great until now. The new battery was faulty and I ended up returning it for a refund.

My battery keeps dying if I dont use my car for 1-2 days and Subaru is failing to address the issues.
