July 23rd, 2020 12:44 PM #1843Seriously! If I had come over a few days earlier I would have saved me over 5k. [emoji38]
The first Amaron I bought lasted over 3 years. From the anecdotes here in Tsikot, that is actually a rather short life. Though that battery was discharged a number of times since the Granvia it was installed on had alternator trouble. All the other Amarons I bought after, at least among the cars that are still around, are still functioning well.
But the Santa Fe the SF Sonic was installed on never had any electrical trouble!

July 23rd, 2020 12:55 PM #1844we have to take into account, the type of traffic the car does.
highway is the battery's friend.
city stop-and-go, especially night time, is the battery's fiend.
my son got over 4 years from his battery. he drove highway.
i got 13 months, or a month after warranty expired. i drive city, half being at night. i also used to turn off my engine at long stoplights.
same car model, same battery. (champion, by motolite. it was cheap, back then.)Last edited by dr. d; July 23rd, 2020 at 12:58 PM.

July 24th, 2020 12:41 AM #1845Seems like Hyundais have a good charging.
Even on my Grand Starex, tumagal ng almost 5 years yung Amaron.
Sa Toyotas ko ngayon ko pa lang masubukan.
But in my vios it's 2 years already. Never had trouble pa.
Unlike sa Motolite sakto after warranty sira na

Not categorically. It's case-to-case.
We had four Hyundais in the past (not all at the same time)... 2 Getz and 2 Starex.
One of each type of vehicle has had their alternators replaced due to non-charging.
And get this, the charging fault idiot lamp never lit up in both cases. The driver didn't have a clue that the vehicle was just running off of the batteries until the engine failed to start.

The old battery that we trade-in to Amaron shop what will they do with the old battery? Sell it to junkshop or recycle it?
