How much does it cost to replace a Subaru Legacy battery?
Just replaced battery in my older Legacy with whatever Sears unit Consumers liked. Something like 700 CCA and, I perhaps wrongly assume, has more capacity. About $100. The battery tray has ample room it would seem. Anyone dump the factory battery for a bigger and, I hope,, better one?
Can a 4 cylinder battery be replaced at AutoZone?
Did the replacement at Autozone. As bad as the battery is for the 6 cylinder, it is even worse for the 4 cylinder (just 365 CCA). As for why, the stock battery – despite being new – barely started the car when the headlights were in “auto.” And this is in a semi-heated garage.

What kind of battery does a legacy 3.6 have?
Was doing some work on our 3.6 and after 2 hours with the dome lights on (yes, my fault for not shutting off) a dead battery quickly ensued. While charging I saw it had all of 490 CCA, which to me says it may be weak and underpowered. Just replaced battery in my older Legacy with whatever Sears unit Consumers liked.
What happens when you disconnect the battery in a Subaru?
P.S. Welcome to the Subaru family! Any newer car has ALLOT of things lost when the battery is disconnected. I have heard of the thing with the power window, sounds like you have too. Every car I’ve owned had the battery replaced, I hate factory batteries!
