I've always been a fan of Deka batteries, their ETX15 should be the correct battery.
Deka aka East Penn is the best battery manufacturer out there. They dont leak as much, they last typically 3-6 years depending on circumstances
I'm using Deka. But it's a good choice. I haven't any problems with it.
Deka batteries are still good quality. They are somewhat harder to find than other brands.
Fall 2016 Update: I just installed a new battery. It is a Deka Group 47 AGM. Cost was about 135$ at Battery Mart, 20$ more than the standard battery the store offered. It is odd in that the carry handle is square to the battery length. The specs say it weights 37-1/2 lbs. 600 CCA at 0 F. Two minor things: The battery foot flange is not thick enough to match the battery holding channel or the holding clamp. Some sort of wedge needs to be used. There are probably height adapters or spacers sold for that. Second, the hood release cable will need to run on top of the battery corner, unless you slide the battery out toward the radiator more than I want to.
I've been buying Deka batteries for awhile now and they have been great to me as a customer.
I just ordered a Deka EXT20L, from what ive read everyone loves it. At $87 from Lowes its worth the gamble. Its a sealed AGM battery so it can be mounted anywhere, ill be putting it under the rear seat.
I have personal experience with with both battery technology and the litium ones put the conventional small battery to shame. If I left my car with the small Deka that's in it for a few weeks without starting, or turning off the cut-off switch, the alarm and small draw I have from a wacky door switch would completely drain it.
My current dead battery is a Deka - lasted 3.5 yrs, can't complain.
I went to an official dealership and they told me the battery is faulty, and replacing it would cost around 185 euro, labor included. I checked online and it seemed like in the Netherlands a comparable battery costs between 85 and 120 euro.
