    2007 SANTE 220 Battery Replacement, which do you prefer?

    I am swapping out my batteries and want to know what everyone else goes with. Exide, Interstate, etc? Just cranking or dual purpose? Also, how do I find the dimensions for the battery for my 2007 220? My dealer recommended exide 24, which I assume is the largest size battery I can fit in the battery holders (for lack of a better term). Is that true or can I fit a larger battery in there? Thanks

    Check out fiberglass matt batteries. The are not cheap but have longer life and longer power minutes than normal acid or gel batteries. If you have a high power stereo system its a must. Get ready, they aint cheap!!! Do both at the same time and if you can take a volt meter to get the closest voltage two you can.

        AGM battery (Absorbant Glass Mat) is one of the best units. Napa sells them from a top rated battery manufacturer.
        I put one in my 2003 Bimmer. I made the mistake of leaving the parking lights on all day for about 9 hours including the angel eyes.
        I took one look on the way to the car and figured.... not gonna start. It cranked over like the lights had been off all day.
