Hi everyone

I've just ordered a Varta E44 battery. I didn't do my research properly and I've now found that it isn't the same spec as the original.

Will it matter that it isn't an AGM if I never use the stop/start? (I've already disabled this via OBD11).

If it is OK, I've read I'll need to make changes using the OBD11 but if I do, what should I set the "Battery Technology" as? It is currently set as EFB. I've no idea what that means.

Thanks for reading
