BGTV8 Finally needed new battery
After 68 months of ownership and 122000 kms of daily driving, my battery died today. Went to the car park under my work and the engine cranked a little and refused to engage the starter thereafter.
Had to call Auto Club battery assist guys and cough-up $200, but the OEM battery was cactus .... it had a dead cell. Not a bad run. My ute (tow vehicle) still has the OEM battery after 8 years, but it only gets used as weekends and spends its time in between on a trickle charger and so has not been cycled as many times as the Z. Probably helps that we have mild winters (by comparison) as well. Any other long-lived batteries in mild climates ? |
