Which battery?
Hi guys,

My battery for 2011 turbo s is almost due for replacement. I found Walmart Maxx H7 for the replacement but one of forum member mentioned it is not 100% fit. Which battery should I buy for the 100% oem fit? I do not want to deal with hassle at all.

Thanks and hope you guys have remaining happy 4th !

There are several recent threads on this. I went with the Bosch AGM from Pep Boys and it is great.

The Porsche Dealer told me that I should get an Interstate Battery rather than the factory Bosch Battery for my 2011 twin turbo.

The battery from the factory is a Moll not Bosch...but Interstate, Bosch (from Pep Boys) and others are great aftermarket options.

My mistake on the oem battery. Interstate battery is what I will get when needed. I always have a battery maintainer hooked up.
