Battery OEM Mazda or OEM Audi

2014 Mazda 3, about 65k km.\n\n2nd battery only because I left the lights on one time a few years ago and needed a replacement. Nil problems otherwise.

2018 Mazda 6 is going fine.\n\nProbably due for a battery soon as preventative maintenance.

Replace battery with OEM battery AFS still in operable on and off.

My cx30’s 2023 battery died as I was coming to a stop sign. As I was rolling to the stop sign my breaks failed hit the car Infront of me and the could not get my car to start.

Mazda OEM batteries known for underpowered and short shelf life. If you are in any kind of extreme climate for more than one season, there's a likely chance of failure.

162km at 42% battery is still kinda poor for 2025.

My 2025 CX-30 battery is already showing signs of dying but I bought the car in April but then had surgery in June and only went back to work today so it sat for long periods and I do leave my dash cam in parking mode. It might come back some after being driven more or it might not.

The OEM batteries are shit. It died around the two-year mark.

My battery died last July at exactly 2,5 year mark. Mazda OEM battery is a cheap trash and so are the replacements too.

My 2014 CX-5 eats batteries and always has since i bought it brand new. I usually have to replace 1x a year\u2026 and I know it\u2019s coming about 45 days in advance because my bluetooth and USB chargers will suddenly stop working and that\u2019s how i know oh my battery will die soon!
