    BMW Z8 factory battery

    As reported I took delivery of my 2002 Z8 with 6600 miles about two months ago. The private seller had a BMW battery (part# 61 21 2 353 810) installed just prior to the sale. This battery is not an AGM spec. Should I change this to an AGM spec battery to eliminate the risk of acid damage. My shop feels that this isn’t necessary. Thanks

    Battery tech is really changing. My Odyssey AGM is about 1/3 the size and weight of OEM and works great.

    But there is a new kid on the block, even more powerful and much lighter. It may be our future.

    heavily modified for performance. Although, not to the level of GM's car
