Seems you don't know that there are One Year and Two Year warranty Everstart batteries stocked on the Walmart racks along with high end flooded and AGM units

I recently had to replace the Everstart Plus battery (non AGM) in my A4.

What battery and from where did you buy it?

(I'm.betting an Everstart from Walmart.)

Life Lesson No. 1: Buy from reputable origin and source.

Interstate, if you don't trust Everstart.

Saving $35‐50 on a yet-to-be-fully-proven AGM manufacturer and supplier isn't worth it compared to e.g. Interstate/Costco and Everstart/Walmart for follow-through on customer dissatisfaction.

The answer(s) are here: An interesting theory. It could also explain why the left rear wheel-well lip tends to rust out ahead of the right. I'm not so sure I buy it though.

Do you still have a Scorpio parts car(s)?

White connector is for a/c pusher fan; black connector is for radiator puller fan. O.P. : Those clearances on either side look snug but not so tight as to result in chafing as the M.D. radiator is held securely in place by the two lower mounts with vibration absorption/isolation from the upper and l...
