Most of the Varta Germany I saw max out around 5 years.... but 8 years? wow.

1. I do not produce those batteries myself, so I'm not sure why Germany AGM last longer than Korea AGM.
2. I only can speculate that back then Varta AGM Germany was being manufactured at condition way over spec so it can last really long.
3. Varta AGM Korea only available after Johnson Controls acquired Varta (where people start to see blue dynamic, black dynamic, and they thought these also from Germany) Initial stage I was told Korea can produce up to DIN95 AGM, anything bigger, nope (that's what the news I know 2 years ago, now not sure).
4. As for Johnson Controls Korea AGM, they dun produce them as over spec as those previously made in Germany anymore, thus the price cheaper and more people can "use" Varta AGM

If I'm Varta, I will ensure the battery will last longer than warranty period but will not last for a long long time, else there will be no recurring business.

* 8 years ago, Johnson Controls if not mistaken, haven't purchase Varta just yet.
* Mercedes apparently switching to FIAMM from Varta as their OEM battery supplier

thanks for throwing some light and sorry for hijacking your Camel thread with Varta queries.

bookmarked your thread for future reference, when battery replacement comes...hope not soon!

Camel batteries can be used for F30 320D? Saw ur ad seems all for petrol one. Varta ones seemed to last more than 5 years and still going strong.

What is the price for a 50D26L battery?

50D26L too low spec. not available

75D26L RM280 620A CCA, 1 year warranty
80D26L RM295 600A CCA, 1 year waranty
90D26L RM320 740A CCA, 18-month warranty

what would be suitable equivalent for naza ria?

I looked at the camel battery website and am a bit confused by the naming convention. Which type corresponds to DIN55L?

Haven't finalise the list yet.
F30 320D can use, diesel 6-month warranty.

"still going strong", u need the check battery health percentage to determine how many percent of lifespan left. Not just can start the car mean still "very very strong"

Hi there, I am looking to get the din80 or din80 agm for my volvo v40 t5 drive e. According to to my manual it is supposed to be either ah 70 or 80 but the camel website doesn't say its compatible, car put states the varta din80agm is compatible. Can you please confirm which is compatible and whether there is stock? Thinking of replacing the battery tomorrow evening at pj. Thanks

Hi... din 100 agm how much
