2017 Mazda CX-5

I wonder what will happen if you use the ordinary type of battery? This reminds me, I don't know exactly what battery I installed. It doesn't have any stickers but I know it's from Motolite.

Travs posted pics of some articles describing potential issues with using a non-EFB with istop. Possible issues can be with damaging some of the istop electronic components.

But I reckon such issue can happen only when using istop. For those who are not activating it, perhaps an ordinary battery would do?

Since my car is still under warranty, I replaced my M3's battery with Yusana EFB. Perhaps I'll try an ordinary motolite battery after my car's warranty expires.

Pati battery kasama sa warranty? Got my cx5 on Nov 2017 and so far battery is still ok *KNOCK ON WOOD*

I think (not sure) that regular batteries will have a shorter life span compared to an istop battery.

Though Lakwatsero said that he and other CX5 club members use the regular Amaron battery.

*Lakwatsero: is your regular Amaron battery 1 or 2sm?

*Archer: Damn, if I see those warning signs on the monitor, I would panic hahaha

2SM fits sa Gas model pero snug fit. Kailangan iremove yung battery insulator.

For CX5 Diesel, meron na rin nakapalit to 3SM Amaron, wala naman problem sa fit.

I think the CX-5 and the "6" share the same size, 3SM. You have to take note of the positive terminal placement. I didn't know and my friend made a mistake so I have to pull and somehow "arrange" the wires to connect the battery.



The position of my forefinger should be the place for the positive terminal and because of that, I had to remove the cable below and bend the wires so as to fix the terminals.

Anyways, my friend will give me another one to replace it. I told her that it is working and is still working so I told her that she instead give me the Exide AGM once it is available.

Yes! I got it for free. I'm so fortunate to have her as my friend.
