Battery

Once your OEM battery goes to ****... what do you guys do? Do you go with another OEM or another brand?

If another brand... what do you guys use/specs?

Just trying to see what you guys are choosing

well on my 911 when I needed a battery I looked up the specs and then matched it to a Walmart battery for 1/3 the price.

True...

My battery died last October and I couldn’t find any on the island with matching specs. So I resulted with another OEM... but I wish I went with aftermarket and save some cash...

Look here, shows the whole process. Any AGM style battery in the correct size for the Panamera will do. There's also a comparison of the factory battery and the aftermarket AGM battery in the video.
