Battery OEM Subaru or OEM KIA

Der SoH von Papas eNiro 64kwh (2020) ist laut OBD Dongle nach 100.000km noch bei ca 96%. Bisher keine merklichen Reichweitenverluste. Kommt soweit wie am ersten Tag.

I’m in the UAE, where summers hit around 50°C. This Forester is my first car with auto start-stop, and I’m impressed that the battery lasted a solid 4 years. With my driving habits (lots of short runs), my previous cars’ batteries would barely survive 1–1.5 years. This one lasted more than double that.

Eversince i did not have problem on my battery Bought my SUB in WA But we moved here in AZ last 11/2023 Just today my battery ended☹️so after 7yrs need a new battery. Its too hot here AZ like right now 7:15 pm still 110’super hot

Still on vanilla battery. As part of my wife's start process is start car, press button to turn off auto off. Seems to be working.

Another is that the OEM Kia battery just sucks…they fail. The fix is to get a new battery that doesn’t suck. Kia will replace the dead one within warranty but you’ll get another dodgy OEM battery. Most people seem to trend towards buying a good AGM aftermarket battery for this.

Replacing my battery recently

A new battery at 10k miles.

Battery died around 50k miles.

I have a Kia Soul that goes through the OEM batteries every two-three years.

My 2020 Outback OEM battery only lasted 3-ish years.
