Battery OPTIMA or OEM Honda

Ended up finding a red top in the back of the store at Advanced (34R with 800CCA). If you go with Optima know that it takes some modification with the wiring. I needed to remove a cable tie and relocate one of the positive leads. Outback started right up and is running great.

I had a Yellow top optima installed for my subaru around 2015, it lasted until just today - held out well

Maybe last year I got a letter from Subaru Canada saying the battery was being recalled and I could get a replacement.

…After I had already replaced it with an Optima Yellow Top.

I just installed mine recently and works great. Just keep in mind it's an AGM battery.

My car previous to that ('98 Z/28), had an Optima Yellow top. The car sat in garaged for several months with a map light left on, and the battery was dead. It took about 15 minutes of jumping to get interior lights, and another 10-15 minutes to start. After this, I drove that car for another 4 years with the same battery without any other issues.

The OEM tundra batteries only last me 3.5 years at best. I always replace with an Optima battery.

I replaced it with an Optima Yellow top battery. It lasted just shy of 3 years. Replaced it in July with another Yellow Top under warranty.

Optima batteries suck as of the parent company’s sale about 10 years ago. Dead battery rate tripled in our fleet of cop cars (used for driving instruction).

Think my optima red top is about to give out, it's draining down overnight in the cold

I used an Optima, never again.
