I'm going to disagree on the order of removal and installation. Always remove the negative terminal first and reinstall it last. This eliminates the possibility of shorting a tool between the positive terminal and frame ground while removing/installing it.

Keep in mind the battery is a critical car component. The price is low enough to take the risk of early failure but have a backup plan (keep a lithium jump starter in the trunk, it's useful to have anyways) and don't expect warranty service (if any at all) to get you another battery before you buckle and pick one up locally.
The benefit of purchasing locally is just driving in to get the battery tested and swapped if defective within the 3 year warranty. On that note, don't go to Costco for batteries, they suck ever since they started the pro-rated refund.

Edit: Not dumping on the deal, I bought the H6. No core charge for recycling means I can keep the existing one which is mostly functional as a backup (remote start was failing which is a high cutoff). I figured my scenario is low risk.

I've had similar good luck with AGMs in automotive, motorcycle, and lawn equipment applications. They're my preferred battery type for the last several years, and prices are coming down slowly with global competition in place. I'm still hesitant to adopt LiFePO4 in these applications; their additional complexity and propensity for combustion don't sit well with me.There's currently a pretty sweet deal on a U1 lawn/garden AGM for $37 shipped on Ebay. I bought one a while back and it's doing a good job on my Gravely zero turn mower (24HP Kawasaki FR730V).https://www.ebay.com/itm/395327741922?
mine turned out to be $42 shipped. But still a good deal. Thanks for the tip.

I've had many AGMs of different brands swell; it seems to be a normal thing due to a pressure relief type vent instead of the wide open vent that flooded batteries have. Likely has something to do with them being sealed and maintenance free. I've installed hundreds at my work and all the larger ones swell to some extent. Never had one crack or rupture because of it, and they reliably last for years.
Thank you for sharing your experience, good to know.

Thanks, was there a U1 equivalent that Miata guy found for AGM?
Yes this one. It's a little smaller than the 51R and has spade instead of post terminals. Not the most friendly substitution but it's a sweet deal. Miata guy was the one who decided to make the substitution and it sounded doable to me so long as lower CCA isn't an issue. 4 bangers don't generally need steroid level CCA to get them spinning.

Is it really better than the Walmart one? I understand is it cheaper. I have a 2013 Audi with an original battery. I feel like it is at the end of life. I'm hesitant to put that may do something to electronics. At least Walmart is a company to go after. I don't know about this company.

We stopped using WEIZE at work some time back ... Their quality control has dropped to zero and if you have any issues at all then immediately contact your CC or PAYPAL or however you bought it ... Their customer service entire mission is to wear you down with stupidity ... we had tis exact battery go bad after ONE use about 9 months ago here at work ... they wanted voltage readings before and during and after using ... then amperage ... then pictures of the terminals .. then pictures of what it was connected to ... then they wanted us to take impedance readings of the 4awg cable it was attached to ... THATS when we just contacted PAYPAL and got our money back ...

It use to be a good company -- now I will say in the last 10 we bought -- 2 were trashed upon arrival ...

It's a 12V battery, putting out the same 12V as any other 12V battery. There is no possibility that I can see that it would damage your electronics any more than any other battery would. And I'm an electronics technician and circuit designer by trade. If you're more comfortable paying more at Walmart that's completely up to you. I only posted these in the interest of saving people money on a well-established brand.

Meh. H7 everstart platinum agm with 4 year replacement is $180 at Walmart. Not worth risking downtime for shipping if this fails prematurely.

My Audi requires reprogramming. Walmart battery is made in Germany by the same company that makes batteries for many German car manufacturing. It also has a non-prorated 4 year warranty. I have installed quite a few batteries in luxury cars. I had to go to a dealer for a media center player code after installing it in Acura. I have a BS in electrical engineering. not all batteries are equal.

The ACDelco H7 Gold AGM on Amazon is worth a look at $169. Same downtime issue if you have a failure, but the last one I bought went 6.5 years in commercial duty without a hiccup. One of the best batteries I've ever owned.

Actually Costco has great pricing for Interstate Batteries brand. I'm sure members were abusing the return policy, make sense a car battery should be pro-rated after 3 years.
No more abuse than any other seller of batteries, Costco warranty policy just sucks compared to the industry now. It's starts pro-ration from the day of purchase until $0 refund at 36 months.
Walmart, Interstate network, BJs, Sams will replace with a new one under 3 years.

Next time you replace a car battery, you can eliminate the possibility of losing memory items like saved devices, fuel trims, or media passcodes by connecting a 12V backup battery while replacing the main battery. This can be done through an unswitched accessory power outlet or with alligator clip jumper wires. Makes for a seamless trouble-free replacement with nothing losing power. I'm surprised that they didn't teach you that at engineering school.

how did they sort it out remotely? did they ask u to do some testing?
they asked me to put a volt meter on the battery and take a photo. that was it LOL. Once they saw the low voltage they just sent out a replacement. Told me to bring the battery to a local parts store to recycle it.

Even still, their prices are really good for quality brand. It's unlikely to die in first year or two anyway. But to each is their own!
