I have BOSCH batteries. Like them. Was using Varta first, but my local shop does not sell these anymore. That's why I switched to BOSCH. We have them in all our cars (306 GTI, 306 XSi (with RFS engine), 206 1.6 16v, 306 convertible).________________________________________ My car park:'96 Sigma Blue XSi6 '98 Diablo Red GTi6 '99 Onyx Black S16 All RFS powered! Plus various other Peugeots |

Bosch and Varta batteries most probably are the same anyway and should be a good pick. Both belong to Johnson Controls. I have a Varta AGM in mine because of my audio setup. It's pretty good but you would need to tune your alternator for a higher output voltage for a AGM battery or it will never get full in colder weather. Better use any usual starter battery of good quality. Test the CCA (current) before the warranty expires and take it back to the dealer for a replacement if it doesn't meet the expected values. |
