LS battery price
Today I went through a listing I had of OEM basis parts and prices for the LS500. I checked oil filter , air filter and a few odd items of interest. The basic parts I looked up were real reasonable and had a discount from the list price. I decided to see the battery price since it looks a little intriguing in the trunk. Well the discounted price was over $1200. With a parts #28800-31450 . I said no-way it must be the hybrid battery , well I looked again and the auxiliary battery is priced at $2400 .. Maby we have some type of magic super battery.
Thats going to be hard to deal with. I’ll see what really goes when it’s time for a new battery.

Of course I didn't notice the battery had been switched until it died, and when I took a look, "Whoa, where did that one come from?"
Just another thing to watch when I have someone else maintain my cars, smh.

Apparently someone liked the new battery I put into my ES so much, they just had to have it. One of two service establishments had the keys: a repair shop for a front dent, and a tire/front-end alignment shop.

Since I had gone to more than one place, I couldn't definitively blame one of them. Had plans to call the managers and let them know, but I have done nothing at this point.

Yup, my battery had been switched out for one obviously on its last legs, since it died only months after I visited two shops.

Isn't the battery covered by the bumper to bumper 4 year 50k warranty?
Which Panasonic model is included from the factory?
