Battery OEM Nissan or Bosch

I have recently had both batteries replaced and the garage I use recommends Bosch as they have a 6 year ' no quibble ' (unlike VW) warranty . They are to the same spec as the Varta batteries and the right one is a 62ah normal lead acid type .

Dude save your money and chance battery yourself. I disconnected battery million times before and all i needed to do is "relearning window position". I bought Bosch group size 48 battery from Pepboys. It fits like glove and has 3 year warranty.

Alright so i picked up a bosch 750 cca battery and threw that in her on another -10 F day, cycled the glow plugs once and she fired up like it was a mid summer day. Hasnt given me any trouble since and its been nothing but cold here.

I'm using a Bosch Group 48 battery (it is 26 months old now) from Pep-boys. Their testing machine result says 'good battery' The guy at the store said, it was as good as a new one.

new bosch battery

Bosch Battery from Pep Boys 80 Bucks with a 20 dollar rebate. OEM fit.

At one time Bosch batteries had a terrible reputation but they now have their quality control back on track.

Some BOSCH batteries used on VW cars last around 2 years or a bit more but cost appropriately.

Our other car, the 2016 Leaf, kinda is the embodiment of all the negative talking points you hear about, since it's an older EV: It uses an outdated & slower charging standard, has a small battery, and has significant battery degradation (29%) since Nissan decided, in their infinite wisdom, to not give the Leaf a coolant loop for the batteries. (Heat is the biggest killer for EV batteries).

Problem I have with my 2016 is I go threw lot of batterys , first one lasted 3 years which told it comes with 3 year battery 2 one lasted 2 years ,The third one only one year..So brought to dealer. They checked connections and hooked up meter left hooked up for 2 days..It draws .07 amps when just sitting.
