Battery life
recently purchased a 2012.5 CS with the OEM Porsche battery. Life history tells me that the battery life is about 5 years. Assuming this is true, what is a good recomended replacement?? Thanks

I replace my batteries once they exceed four years. The rationale being that I change them on my time versus the batteries time.
In the past, I have let the dealer swap it out with what they have in stock when in for other service. That being said, a few months ago I swapped out a battery myself in my son’s VW Golf and put a Duralast from Auto Zone in it. No complaints to this point.
