Battery Varta or Bosch

I’d go for Vatra. Massively popular in Finland where it often gets lower than -30 in winters. I had mine on an F10 and the car was stationary for 2 weeks with average temp of around -15 degrees. Zero problem

Acum recent am schimbat bateria la mașină, am dat în jur de 530 de lei, baterie de la Varta. Eu am optat pentru varianta la 530 că am renunțat la funcția start-stop, altfel costa aprox. 800 de lei. Cel puțin din experiența personală, este o marcă super oke dpdv al raportului calitate-pret. Înainte de schimb tot Varta am avut, bateria originală de când a ieșit din fabrică (2013)

Varta blue 60ah de pe emag acum 3 ani jumate, fara startstop, 275 lei. Inca e bine in parametri, am o jucarie in bord care imi arata voltajul non stop.

Ia Duracell, am tot luat eu acelas tip de baterie pentru cheia de la masina, le schimbam la 2-3 luni, am pus un Varta, are 5 luni si este ca noua

Salut, am C class diesel din 2012 cumparat acum 2.5 ani. Cand l-am cumparat avea bateria originala, Varta cu logo Mercedes. Am luat fix acelasi model de baterie de la Varta, dar fara logo Mercedes, a costat 850 lei, mi-am montat-o singur. Am considerat ca daca cea originala a tinut 11+ ani, merita sa iau acelasi model.

I’ve had good luck with the VW OEM Varta batteries.

Bosch batteries in my older bmw lasted around 5 years but I was told it’s recommended to change every 2 years.

looking at that reciept seeing Enhanced flooded its even worse, we are a main dealer of Bosch batteries and their EFB rated voltage is 12.6V when not in use not sure for the other big battery brands

I bought a Bosch battery from a respected online company in the UK. The only change I made was uprating from a 100Ah Varta I think the original was to a 110Ah Bosch S5 015 as I thought more storage would help as the car ages and things are naturally a bit more susceptible to failure. Battery lasted 3 years until about January/Feb 2024 when a cold snap hit and the battery just failed to hold a charge overnight.

I have the same problem! Overcharging - 14,9V. Had AGM Varta, I put new Acid Varta and recoded to Lead Acid battery. But there is no difference - charges 14,9V, I think, this is too much!
