Just replaced mine with a DieHard Gold 14-BS from Sears. $102 and if I return the old one I get $10 back.
I filled it with acid that is provided with the battery and followed the instructions on letting is sit for 30 minutes. Checked the voltage without charging it and it read 12.88Volts. Charged for 1 hour at 2amps and the charger indicated it was full. Checked the voltage and it was 13.7 or so.
Installed and it works great. No more Red Warning with the BATTERY Visit workshop.

I have the white battery symbol with visit workshop. I just replaced the main battery in my 2006 R500 in November, to the tune of $563. I definately do not want to go back to the dealer if I don't have to. I know that the main battery in under some seat, (that is why they said it cost so much) where is the aux. battery? I only have 2 days left on my extended warranty and I doubt they would cover it. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Oh I was also wondering if anyone knew what service code 10 is...I was resetting the indicator after the oil change etc. but I couldn't find what that code meant and I want to make sure it gets what it needs. Thanks!

[quote=1999TL;3149914]$118 plus 19.95 shipping. I might as well just order it from my dealer I think. I'll see what he can do for me first.[/q
If you have a Batteries + store in your town, they carry one. $100
