Q7 battery replacement
I've had no starting problems with my 3-year old Q7 4.2, but after routine tests dealer says battery tested "bad" on amperage. His price to replace is $240 (hunh??) for a new battery plus $240 to install (have to R & R the driver's seat), for a total of $480. Seems nuts.
Dealer actually recommended I not replace the battery, rather wait till symptoms develop.
Anyone aware of a less costly alternative? -thanks

yes do the battery yourself. Go to Interstate and get a bettery for Q7. Model MTP-H8 $178.00 plus tax. 85 Months warranty. First 30 months free replacement. According to the Dealer, its a better battery than factory. I paid 1/2 hour labor to reprogram the car. I do have the intructions for rnr the battery if you needed. Its not that hard.
Have fun!
