Firstly, apolagies for posting such a basic question. I'm sure its been asked and dealt with a million times over, but my searches don't seem to be hitting the right mark.
Probably eighteen months ago, I needed two new batteries. I know a guy that works in the trade and he got me a couple of "cheapos". They might now be proving to be a false economy, because already i've had to top up a dry cell and they are running a little sluggishly on morning starts. The previous batteries might have been origionals, but in any case I only recal having to top them up once in the five years I'd had the vehicle, so I guess having dry cells this soon might suggest they are already on their way out?
Okay. To the question. Can anyone give me the parts numbers for Toyota batteries please? When I called them before, I had all sorts of dramas, the result being, I opted for the cheap ones, just to keep me on the road. Rather than the saga of chassis numbers not appearing on their database [they appear for certain parts counter personell, but not others], I'd like to just order the proper batteries by their respective numbers, assuming the genuine ones are still competitively priced?
If my profile shows that I'm not a subscriber, then please don't take the hump! I have previously paid a subscription, and I'm willing to keep doing so, but I honestly couldn't remember whether the payment was automatically recurring or not. I guess I won't know until I've hit "submit".
