Have a couple here 065 the Blue Label ones not doing what there suppose to.
Whats the Warranty aspect, procedure, years etc, as have the receipts but there not sitting in the Cars they came out off. :-\
Also, looks like you have to pull / destroy one of the top labels to check Acid Level does this upset Vx as they do have the Hydro Green Ball thing'y.

Fairly sure the relevant omega ones are 3 year warranty.
Trade club web site suggests 2,3 or 5 year warranty depending on size. No mention of green ball thingy. :)

Green Ball thingy, yea sorry, thats just me thinking out load again, what I really meant on that one was, the Batteries have the Green Ball Hydrometer Indicator, you know, the little window you look down thats suppose to give you the Battery Condition, that are normally only fitted on Maintenance Free Batteries, having said that, I can see under the GM Label, the six rows of circles, that would indicate to me they have the caps on to fill or top up the Acid level, but didn't wont to rip the label off and invalidate any Warranty.
Edit: its this type 065, labels on the top are what Im on about. ;)

Thanks, do the Trade ones look like this though, or the old Go label?

I dont think it matters what type. Go/trade club/blue sticker. There's nothing to suggest any of that matters.
I'm assuming attempting to maintain a maintenance free battery would not help a warranty claim.
I'd just take them back, tbh. :-\

Agreed, especially if you have the receipts :y

Well if Im looking at a 3 year guarantee then I should be covered, as these were service items from the previous owners, I can be who ever I want to be for an hour or so, but if they insist on me bringing the car in, etc, not going be arsed with all that as I know the cars are charging properly. Just hope the Parts guy does'nt remember me from last time after calling them a bunch of useless ?)@\_,s after they stopped doing Trade Club. ::)

Battery will have a three year warranty and for this be covered the battery will be tested and from that test VXM will say if its at fault
Must have orginal invoice and battery is covered from date of sale not date fitted, any tampering with the battery will void any warranty
Good Luck
