You may have been unlucky but I've never had a problem with branded batteries- normally via ebay for a Volvo & Ford.
I wont pay inflated dealer prices for what is a bought in item anyway.
You may have a problem with the fobs?
Had a couple play up on a V70 so repaired via a company on ebay that also do the internal parts- couple of years back but all fine to date.
Can't remember the company right now but you will find relating mail under the
early V70 forum sections.
I do have their business card on file and can send over details if you wish.
Bob.
