Battery Varta or ODYSSEY
Just replaced battery on my Mazda 3 2018.
Di naman inabot ng hindi na ma-start. The i-stop orange sign started blinking + warning sign = i knew battery voltage was low.
Stated the battery was going bad, my thanks to Autonation for letting me get the inspection done and replacing the battery with a Varta AGM (I believe factory spec). Basically I love this car
I bought the Odyssey battery and it's been well worth the money
I replaced mine with a higher capacity Varta 44ah 420cca battery, never had a flat since
Varta B33 Location: Right Trunk under Taillight
Odyssey makes the best. Optima for a middle end battery.
Thx everyone, in the end I found a Varta B23 on discount, which is slightly bigger and slightly stronger (45AH) and fits.
If willing to pay for a Optima yellow top, I suggest you get an Odyssey battery instead. It's a much better battery for about the same price.
The factory battery is rubbish though. So get a better branded battery - varta or Bosch are good.
In my old Audi, I had a non-OEM battery and I did the +1 in the serial number trick. That battery failed in a couple of months. I honestly think it was a bad unit.
