Default -2F here in Chicago Car did not start.. Battery down... Any suggestion on new Battery??

How long is the battery supposed to last? My car is 1996 and I am not sure if it has been ever changed...

Any suggestion for a new Battery.. should I stick to Audi OE or go for an Exide ?? Which Model?

Default It has fancy dimentions (it must feet under back seat).

Even Audi dealer gave me a wrong battery first time so it did not fit.

Also do not forget to put a plustic cover on the positive connector otherwise the wire from the seat will touch it and make funny sparks.

beep-beep is right, dimensions are critical, also battery is vented, needs fitting for tube

I like Interstate battery's. Get a sealed battery so you don't have to goof around with the vent.
