The current weather has done for my battery. I'm looking at the RAC shop for a replacement but the list is long. Does anyone have a recommendation. Should I go AGM?

Many thanks Andrew. I might need to extract the original and see what it is. I'd like to go with Factory spec as well.

This is what came out of mine, if it helps for pricing and physical size.
I don't know how that compares with the original. The removed battery was an AGM.
Presumably as it doesn't say Lamborghini it was replaced by the previous owner rather than the main dealer.
If you change to AGM check that your charger is compatible with charging for AGM.

Also when the battery is disconnected your keys may need re-syncing. Mine would still start the car but wouldn't remotely lock.
Neither of the 2 online methods found worked in my case, perhaps I was doing something wrong! Despite my inability the re-syncing is very simple, if you know what the procedure is.

Hi,
I bought a Bosch S4 for my car around 18 months back, had no issues.
