I put in an 850 cca 800 amp battery and the old one (Duracell or something I think) I replaced was a 900cca battery. Old one was h8. I replaced with an h7 because thats what fcp euro said was the right size for my car. That was the issue. Took it out and replaced with and H8 and it was still in limp mode! Got my code reader out and cleared the codes and restarted and everything works great now

Pros: everything works great now

Cons: limp mode

I personally use Samsung 50S and RS50. The RS50 or 50XG are the optimal choice in my opinion.

Pros: optimal choice

Pros: good luck with Powersonic

Cons: Duracell fail quickly

Duracell [battery] with a 3 year free replacement warranty. Last one failed unusually early, just short of 3 years

Cons: died within 3 years

I'm not putting a Duracell in my car, they can't even make a double A that doesn't leak within the year.

Cons: leaks within year
