Just went out to start up the Turbo to wash it (for the big show)and the battrey is dead. I belive it is the original battery. My cars build date was 5/01 so I guess it is time for a new one anyway.

Should I bend over and get a Porsche battery or get an Interstate type one. I am leaning toward getting the same one that came with the car as I am sure those fans really drain the battery after the car is turned off.

Anyone know how much I should expect to pay?

By the way I clay barred the whole car and what a difference. The paint feels so smooth almost like butter!!!!! If you haven't done this it is a must for any of you.

 

When I had my C4S, the battery went dead so I tried to order a battery from the dealer. I was told the porsche battery (back then) was made by Douglas. I was also told by 2 dealers that interstate was a better battery so I bought an interstate battery for $100. Rob

 

Call the dealer and have them replace the battery. It is under warranty. I had mine and another customer's replaced. Make them foot the bill!

 

Great point!!!! The dealership is one of my accounts so I am sure they will help me out. thanks for the help

 

I have a 5/2001 build. The dealer has replaced the battery three times at their expense. Stephen is right. This is a warranty item.
