At the opening of JAG, a guy jumps into his C3 Vert. and no start. He opens the battey compartment and you see a red top. I think he pulls on the cables and POW! Now he no hearing. Not sure what happened here. :eek:

I replaced my DELCO with a Champion XLT (AGM Battery) size/number DT35/CHXDT35 made by Exide. Got it at SAMS Club for $90-95. It has 690 CCA, 850 CA, a 36 month free replacement and free jump-start, and a 108 month limited warranty.
