Battery OEM Honda or OEM Volkswagen

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

My '11 Fit had a aftermarket 151R battery. Mine occasionally produced a similar noise such as this on cold day starts. I think the noise stems from the starter, perhaps the starter solenoid that doesn't retract after you release the key from start position. My issue went away after I replaced the battery

Yes, very true. The closest you get to 100% SoC, the more the battery degrades. The ideal SoC would be at around 50-60%. But 80% is also good. (My EV has its lowest limit at 80%).

Had my '18 R since May '18 and still on original battery, 25 mile commute to work each way about 1/2 hwy . At 57,000 miles.

OEM battery in my 2016 Jetta with 215k miles is still going strong.

VW OEM batteries in modern cars often do that. I was lucky to detect slightly "lazy" cranking in my 2018 GSW 4Mo. Tested and showed %51 SOH even after fully charging it. Lasted 6 years almost to the date.

My golf 2010 VW dashboard ****s down but car remains running. When it don't start take out the battery touch the two cables together with out the battery. For 15 seconds to reboot the car and it starts back.

3 yrs on a Honda battery had me smh honestly.

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.
