    DISCO 4 2014 TIME FOR NEW BATTERY

    Hi Guys. I know there are lots of threads on this but none current. I am looking at a Bosch BLN5 like Tombie has or the original Exide SSAGM-88EU. Neither are exactly the same as the manuals specs falling a little short of recommended reserve of 190 min. I can get the exide installed for around $450. Since my OEM has lasted this long I thought maybe go with the same. Any opinions please?

    I recently reviewed all the recommended batteries for the D4 and went with a SSB SS88Ti discounted for $365 delivered. General consensus was the Varta is probably the best battery you can get for the car but at the time was substantially more expensive. this was a close second.

    I wouldn't for the extra $150+, for a D4 might be worth it.
