    AGM batteries have been widely fitted for a decade now, if it has stop/start it must have an AGM battery. I am definitely noticing that AGM batteries used in SS cars are not lasting as well as the old lead acid batteries; it was not unusual to see conventional batteries last 12 years or more but AGM’s seem to go weak after as little as four years. The best batteries VAG ever fitted were used in the 80’s and made in Yugoslavia by Tesla (not the US company who nicked the name) and we’re always fitted to Yugoslavian built Caddy’s and Spanish built Polo’s, quite often these were still working when 20 years old.

    hi what is the make of battery? make sure the AH and CCA of the new battery are the same as the old one.
    a straightforward swap is fine.the electrics might not operate initially but these can be rectified easily.
    you dont need to do any coding.
