My previous battery died this winter while the car was hibernating, it lasted less than two years. By the time I got it back to the store it was one week over the two years free replacement time.
I replaced it with an AGM battery, hopefully it will last longer, my OEM Varta battery, which I replaced with the battery that died sits on the shelf in my garage. It is still holding a charge when periodically recharged after nearly 12 years, it was put in the car in October 2004, amazing.
