Do you want a recommendation or a replacement battery? :)

I recently replaced the one in my '99 A4.  I got a sears Die Hard.
In my research, the "size" is correct size is a 91, but a 48 will
also fit. Sears checked with the local Autozone before they gave
me the 48. Either should do the job for you.
