My trusty old Sunny has been giving me that sluggish groan on startup for a couple weeks now and I know it’s just a matter of time before I’m standing in some RTA parking lot with the bonnet up looking like a lemon. Started doing what I always do which is over research everything and now I’ve gone down a rabbit hole of battery brands and CCA ratings and whether paying extra for an AGM is worth it for a car that cost less than some people’s monthly rent. Asked a few friends and got three completely different answers, one swears by Amaron because his lasted four years, another says only ACDelco is worth the money, and my neighbor just shrugged and said whatever the roadside guy brings is fine. Then I stumbled across some trade listing while looking up local stockists that had a bunch of info and boldly claimed they offer the best battery replacement service UAE which is a pretty big statement considering how many garages there are between here and Sharjah. I guess I’m just trying to figure out if there’s a genuine difference in longevity out here or if they’re all going to get cooked by August regardless of the sticker on the side and I should just get whatever’s cheapest and keep a jump starter in the boot. Anyone actually tracked how long different brands have held up for them in Dubai summers?
