Battery Varta or OEM Subaru

varta - tvornicki akumulator na mbenz w211 izdrzala do proljeca ove godine. Dakle 18 punih godina

tvornicka varta na clio 4 trajala 7 godina a i tad je zamjenjena tek kad se skuzilo da start-stop vise ne radi a auto palio bez problema

Uso da molti anni esclusivamente Varta , dura in media 4-5 anni mi trovo bene e non cambio il Brand .

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.

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.

Our car straight up died on the road twice, to the point it couldn't be jumped, with my kids in the back seat. Subaru eventually gave us an upgraded battery.

Hatte beide Marken schon. Aktuell auch eine Varta Blue EFD drinnen.

I had this issue as well, one day the car wouldn’t turn over. Then it would. Then there was no power. Then it would start. Over several days and weeks this would happen. It was explained to me that the Subaru batteries that come from the factory are made to hold just barely enough power to start the car. If that power is diminished in even the slightest degree, like with normal usage in the first 50k miles, then the battery does not have enough charge to do its basic task anymore, rendering it useless. As I understood it, the batteries in the new cars are not up to snuff.

Replacing my battery recently

A new battery at 10k miles.
