[QUOTE="Adam Smith, post: 1028947, member: 59024"] My battery was under warranty (2 yr) from O'Reilly's. Instrument gauge lights acting up, took it in to O'Reilly's for them to test, said battery was bad, even though it was just 18 months since purchased there (and it was produced 1 month before purchase). They gave me a new battery (warranty does not extend beyond original battery warranty, BTW, so I have 5 months left on it). I asked if they could help me install it, even though I'm fully capable of doing so myself, but it was slow in the store, and thought I'd ask. Lucky I did. They came out and dropped the new one in, hooked it up, and it was dead. Saved my afternoon, of driving home, pulling the old one, etc. Lesson learned. He said that happens more often with new batteries in the last 2 years. [/QUOTE]
