When did you change your battery?

Just changed the battery on our '99 RX with 118K miles. We just got the vehicle last fall, but I don't think the battery in it was original. We got the one from Wal-Mart (yes, I know), but it was highly rated by Consumer Reports and on this forum. Boy, does it spin that starter around!!

Just bought a '02 with 85000KM which had been sitting on a Chrysler lot since Sept '07.....they replaced the battery after I'd made the deal because the sales mgr wasn't happy as it had to be jumped to detail it.
I liked that.

Hi,
I bought my car (2000 RX300 AWD) on july 2005 and has motorcraft battery. It has no problem but i don't know how long before the previous owner changed the battery. Do i need to replace it ? Any reviews for this battery:
" DieHard Automotive Battery, Platinum P-1 - Group Size 34 ". Does the battery cause any more extra gas burning ? Full tank of gas my Rx300 goes for only 200 miles in New York City|

Your battery has no direct effect on your fuel mileage. You might try cleaning your Air/Fuel sensor (search this forum) and resetting your ECM by disconnecting the ground wire (-) from the battery for about ten minutes to reset your computer to the default fuel map.
