Took my JSW in last week for an oil change and again this week for a brake fluid flush. This time, the battery came back as weak during their testing, though last week it was fine. Assuming it does need to be replaced, their price was $199.99. That seemed really high to me for a battery replacement. This dealer is typically very good and super competitive on OEM pricing (DSG service is $285, I believe).
So is there a reason why I should spend that much on a battery? Is there something special about the OEM battery? Should I look elsewhere and, if so, what am I looking for? I’ve read a few others mention AGM batteries. Is this something I should be looking for as well?
Thanks!
