Battery OEM Nissan or Duralast

I replaced mine in my driveway with a same size AutoZone Duralast Gold. With a coupon, I was out the door for less than $200. The car wintered outdoors at a Vermont ski resort and always started.

Crappy "genuine VW battery/parts" for you. Any of my other OEM Japanese car batteries lasted much longer. My 2011 Nissan 370z OEM battery lasted 7 years. It could've probably gone even longer if not for without driving it for long during the covid pandemic.

I JUST replaced my wife's 2013 Beetle battery with a Duralast from Autozone.

I used the duralast from autozone.

I use duralast and get about 4 years on a battery. No complaints at all.

Outback has a Duralast Gold. If it helps, we’ve had some harsh -30°f days the last few years since I upgraded my battery. No issues what so ever on it.

My Nissan eats batteries, about every 2 years. Nissan brand or not. It just likes new ones I guess

San Antonio Leaf driver here, a Leaf is fine in Texas as long as you don't want to do road trips (battery heating gets to be an issue around 250 miles on a 40kWh on the interstate). This sub is overwhelmingly negative on the Leaf, despite it being a good local commuter.

Don't do Duralast...they don't last.

I usually run the Duralasts just because AutoZone is everywhere and I usually get it replaced twice before the warranty runs out - Phoenix is brutal on batteries.
