I’ve had the AC Delco Professional installed for about two years now, and it’s been quiet and reliable, just like you’d expect from the OEM!
That’s a solid choice, but I saw some complaints about their performance in extreme temperatures.
Honestly, I just replaced mine with a NAPA battery. It’s performing as expected so far. Hope it lasts for a few years!
I was going to get a NAPA but opted for the Bosch instead. The warranty swayed me, and I’m quite pleased with it!
Warranties are crucial! What kind of warranty does the Bosch offer?
Most Bosch batteries come with a 3-year free replacement warranty. Definitely worth considering!
I feel like battery brands are similar to relationships: sometimes you just have to find the one that doesn’t leave you stranded!
Lol, that’s so true! I’ve had my share of heartbreaks with bad batteries, but luckily I’m currently in a good one!
My battery saga is still ongoing! Has anyone here tried a lithium-ion replacement for their Cruze? Curious about longevity.

The 2015 Chevy Cruze typically requires a Group 47 battery. To replace it, first ensure the car is off. Disconnect the negative terminal, then the positive. Remove the old battery and replace it with the new one, connecting the positive first and then the negative. Always double-check the connections!

Great tip! Also, you’ll need basic tools like a socket wrench and a battery terminal cleaner. Don’t forget gloves and goggles for safety!

When I replaced my Cruze battery last year, I laid out all the tools beforehand. Made the process smoother! Remember to take a picture of the settings before you disconnect the terminals – it helps during reinstallation.
Absolutely! Plus, it’s often required by law in many places. It’s a small step that helps the environment!

Pro tip: after installing the new battery, turn the ignition to the ON position without starting it for a few seconds. This helps the system reset.
That’s a great suggestion, mindy63! It’s definitely important to reset the electrical system. Always good to check that everything is functioning after a battery swap!
Can anyone suggest a specific battery brand that works best for the Cruze? I’ve heard mixed reviews about various brands.
I’ve had good luck with AC Delco batteries! They fit perfectly and last a long time. Always good to read user reviews too!
Just a side note: when working with the battery, make sure you’re wearing gloves! Acid can be nasty if it spills on your skin – learned that the hard way!

Ouch! That’s a tough lesson to learn. Always prioritize safety first during car maintenance!
Replacing batteries isn’t rocket science, but sometimes it feels like it! Just take your time and double-check each step.
