My '04 made Varta sits on the garage shelf all charged up and nowhere to go.
With the age of some of these batteries I would open the six caps on the top of them and refill with distilled water up to the bottom of the hole, batteries don't like the plates exposed.
I pulled off the caps, but know which level to fill to as there appears to be a two level marks?
