Interestingly I have also had Battery issues on the D2 A8 - bought a new Yuasa Silver YBX5019 last 26th May and it has only lasted a few months. The last straw was Friday when I charged the car over night and it started ok on Saturday morning, so I took the charger off and the following morning it was completely flat again and unable to start the car - pretty rubbish really for such a young battery. I took it in to the Battery Shop on Monday and I bought a new Bosch S5 013 which I paid for and they took the Yuasa Battery to test for a day or two. They rang back the next morning and said "its completely mullered" and come in for a refund . . . . seems like Yuasa have many issues
