Car battery warranty with stop/start

Post by VK4GHZ »

Replacing the car battery today after 4 years, so that was a good run!!!
(It was a Repco branded N70ZZ4WD if you were wondering, which is a re-badged Century)

The new battery, a Century N70ZZXMF, has a warranty condition I hadn't noticed before on car batteries.

Warranty is void for taxi and deep cycle use and in vehicles fitted with Idle Stop Start systems.

This isn't applicable to me, but shared out of interest for those that might have newer vehicles with stop/start.
Always check the warranty details first! :om:

I also bought a new car battery in the last month. I got it from Supa Cheap Auto and the guy there let me know about the now different types of battries for the auto stop start vehicles.
