    Recommended Battery for A4 Cabrio

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Ok, so my girlfriends A4 Cabrio needs a new battery. If we do not get the factory Audi battery, what battery would you guys recommend for the car? I have done a search and seen many results for the Optima battery but seen several different model numbers. Can anyone tell me specifically which one would fit her car?

    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks guys, I got the recommended battery from Autozone that has the breather tube outlet. I know that isn't a big deal but my gf was concerned about it so we went that route.

    For the install, man that was a pain in the ass . I cannot believe how tucked in that battery is behind the firewall....crazy. And the stress bar makes it almost impossible to access the bolt on the bracket that secures the battery. Ugh, royal pain. But all done!

    Thanks for all the help.

    Ya I went with the Bosch too and I took all the connections off and the shroud and saw that bolt down there and was like WTF! Had to get pretty long extension, but right tools makes a easy job!
    Keep it funky!
