T have the same one as TRYNIAN has ,installed and it has been great for over 2 years now.No signs of weakness in this cold weather yet.As far as Odyssey red 2150 it may not fit the compartment , high wise at least, unless he leaves a cover out.The width and length is fine , but i am concern about high . At 9.47 IN. , i think is too tall.

This is what the dealer put in mine.

Interstate Battery, Mega-Tron Plus 85 Month - MTP-H8 720 CCA

That's the one I got under warranty. I have had good luck with Interstates in several hot rods and an older Disco II.

As Nathan mentioned, go to Sears, their new Platinum line is better then anything else on the market.

Not available according to the Sears web site & my local Sears service center. I was truly disappointed!

I had an issue close to what was noted in this and I believe a second line of discussion. Sat Nav and HDC would both give warnings related to unavailability on start up. This would pass, and would not repeat after driving “Red Rover” for a short distance. That is to say on the second start up of the day it would not reoccur. This past Monday I went to a small, local auto shop purchased the Interstate battery, MTP-H8 and installed it. I am very happy with the battery.

JohnKel - I *think* thats the size the salesman at Sears told me may fit, but after some scrutiny it looked like it would be too tall.

DieHard from Sears and Duralast from Autozone are both made by the same company, Johnson Conrtols. They also make Interstate Batteries.

That being said a Duralast Platinum from Auto Zone should be a good battery for those of us needing a new battery. HDC not available and Parking Brake fault have started to appear on my dash with the recent cold spell. Think its about that time for me.

Couldnt get a Duralast platinum but they carried the gold series at AutoZone. Stock battery is 690 amp this is 760 amp with a 3 year replacement, 8 year warranty. Not a bad deal for $130 if your dealer wont replace current battery under warranty or if you just want the peace of mind of an upgrade. Took me about 15 mins to put in.
