Hello,

All this about a battery.

After the acid ate my oil pressure line in my 3, I went to a maint. free 
battery the Delco freedom. That lasted about 7 years and when I needed a new 
battery I decided to go with the Exide Orbital.

At the time it was about 95$ + shipping. 

I still have the old bullet starter in the 3 and this battery turns over the 
engine just wonderful.

It works so good, when the 4 was ready for the road I got another but in only 
1 year the price went up to 135!.

This is the 3rd season with the 3 and 2nd with the 4 and no problems.

During the winter all batteries are stored in the cellar and get a refresh 
charge using my battery tender.

And no more problems with acid.

During the driving season, they hold their charge just great. No problems 
starting either car even after 2 weeks or more.

Bob
