When you change/disconnect the battery you will have the dash light up....just drive it and they clear out once you hit ~10mph.
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.
Tdi Touareg (mid 2000s) battery fits, with posts recessed and in the right place. Dealer price used to be like $115 and they are solid 900cca performers.
My original vw battery made it 8 years and 170k miles, but 10 years is pretty damn good!
With winter coming, I bought an odyssey extreme battery for my 2017. I’m not going to risk it.
I have one of these and its been perfect for 5 years with a 700watt sound system on a v8 truck.
I have the Odyssey Yellowtop
Going with Odyssey MK7.5. The one in my Raptor is awesome 3 years old and tests like it was new. Its not lighter but its a great battery. Try Braille batteries.
Since the battery weighs ~40 lbs this isn't really a significant weight change from front to rear so I've no idea if the car handles any differently. Would I recommend this mod? Probably not as it's not cheap and has no real performance advantage and more crazy than anything.
I've had a few of the Odyssey batteries... Never lasted more than about 14-18 months before dead. Take a look at these: https://shop.antigravitybatteries.com/products/starter-batteries/automotive/ag-h6-rs/
