Just make sure you get the right one for the job...

Mine is on its third.MY12.

First was changed at 12 months under warranty,second lasted 4.5 yrs.

Not only do you need the correct battery,it also needs to be looked after.

That is making sure it is kept fully charged at all times.

Vehicles(D3/4),or for that matter any modern vehicle, that sits around or does small runs needs the battery charged regularly,or the life of the battery is compromised.

My Indi mentioned that 3 yrs or more for a battery in a D3/4 is above average life.

Long trips constantly do it good...
