RRT 09-019 What battery did you end up with?

Just got my R/T back yesterday after having the battery swap and front grill replaced due to blistering. The original battery was rated CCA625.

The replacement called for in the RRT was a battery rated at CCA730. The one they put in my car is rated at CCA650 - - not the battery specified in the RRT. Should I take it back? I hate giving my car back to them, but I don't like the feeling I've been swindled.

On a side note, having the battery disconnected seemed to have recaliberated something as the throttle seems to be more responsive then before.

Take it back, the dealer just put in what he had in stock. That is not what is specified in the RRT. Make him order it if he has too. Man I hate dealers.

I just had mine replaced this past Wed. Got a 750, 72 month battery. With cold weather coming you may need a full 750! Especially if you don't drive it everyday!

My repair ticket had a RRT 09-059 on it in addition to the J27 recall (nut on front wheel assembly) and the battery replacement. Anyone know what that RRT is for?
