The coin flip was which was more desirable, the start/stop not working anymore due to an old, weak battery or possibly getting stuck somewhere in the winter. So I bit the bullet and had a new Autozone Duralast AGM Platinum battery installed today.Once I see that Auto Start/Stop is working as often as it used to Ill put the small plug cable in and cross my fingers. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />BTW, that battery change was a PITA for the Autozone guy. Two holddown nuts, a holddown bracket, four heavy wires needing disconnected, three lighter AWG wires needing disconnected and then the plastic "terminal blocK' pushed out of the way. The tech said it can be a 45 minute job but it only took him 30 minutes. In 90 F weather. So he definitely earned the tip.$260 with  3-year warranty from Autozone versus $356 from the dealer with a 42-month warranty.</blockquote>
