Battery OEM Chevrolet or ODYSSEY
UPDATE: i just got my wifes car back from the dealership and it turns out it was the battery for hers. The voltage thats normal for her car is 14.8 volts not 13.4. He said there are 40+ computers and when the voltage is low it causes havoc in the car.
Odyssey agm65 battery you can buy this battery on the link I added or on Amazon with free shipping. This is a perfect swap for an OEM battery. Truly Plug and play. Learned this from someone on Reddit and decided to try it myself and it works perfectly.
When I bought my used bolt from Carvana. I had scheduled a full review at the local Chevy service center/dealership. They confirmed the battery had been recently replaced, other than that perfect condition.
Odyssey AGM. Super durable, sits well if you aren\u2019t riding much and far less likely to leak.
In 4 years I put 3 batteries in my wife’s 2013 Infiniti, 3rd battery I went with an Odyssey and it’s been going strong for 3 years now.
Chevy Volt. It was a true gateway drug to the world of EVs and showed me that I can do most of my driving solely on battery so I didn't need to worry about range anxiety.
I have a 10 year old odyssey battery that's still going strong. Not cheap but worth it.
I just replaced my OEM Subaru battery on my '22 with an Odyssey AGM 35 for about $370.00. The original OEM battery lasted about 3 1/2 years, let\u2019s see how long this one will last.
That said, do not buy another Subaru battery. They are way over priced and extreme garbage. You'll be replacing it again in a year to 2 years; they are notorious for having failed cells in just a couple years. If you want something that will last a long time buy an AGM from Odyssey.
Never left me stranded besides a dead battery.
