replacement batteries for BIMMERS

where do you guys buy your replacement batteries for your bimmers?

do the local brand (outlast/motolite) carry these? or should we only stick with the original brand (delco)?

motolite and delco are almost just the same. you can use motolite batteries for your bimmer. warranty lang ang pinagkaiba nyan, yung pinakamatagal ng motolite is 3yrs while ac delco has 5yrs warranty or more pa yata. voltage and cca lang naman iko consider mo e. but if you have deep pockets, go for optima batteries

look for comparable on the original that will fit and work with your paticular application. Its not hard to look for, it just a matter of decision on which brand.

I would have thought getting a different non-standard battery would have voided the warranty....but hey..... my ride is going on 3 years... so the warranty clause doesn't apply anymore

thanks for your tip guys....

buying a differnt brand battery should not affect warranty. if memory serves (usually doesnt), the warranty booklet states that, the battery is covered by the battery manufactures warranty.
