Which BATTERY? AGM or EFB
Which BATTERY? AGM or EFB
My battery is getting old and I want to replace it. Went to Interstate Battery and they told me my 2017 Nissan Titan SV Crew Cab 4x2 need an AGM battery. I put the AGM on my truck and got a few blocks down the road and the truck idled a little rough sitting at the Red light. I went back and told them my truck isn't running like it was before I arrived so they asked if I just wanted to return it and the put the old battery back on. Now it still idles a little rough but not as bad. Did I screw up by installing the AGM battery? Is my truck suppose to have an AGM or EFB battery?
Thanks for the help.

Re: Which BATTERY? AGM or EFB
You need to extend voltmeter clips with meter in car (have a passenger watch it now 
) it can ALMOST be like reading a data stream IF someone is recording video AND capturing comments , thoughts , observations . For with a battery IN car ................VOLTAGE is the key sounds like in your case ???
p.s. Still sketchy ?? A-zone and O'relly has load boxes and professional battery test eqipment , you can squeeze them in at the points of your choosing , cause AMPS may NOT reflect as great as the so-called " good battery voltages " you may be seeing ?

Forot to mention " good safety practice " of using automotive style ATO fuse holder w/ low 3Amp installed . One end can be shoved in some space created upon loosening positive terminal's nut (10mm?) jam wire in - tighten then couple wraps of El. tape to secure further ! Other end , IF an alligator clip used - strip about 1" , on jaw w/teeth ( 
) double wrap fuse wire THEN couple wraps El. tape to better be " Fail-Safe " . You've taped the crap out of BOTH now .
Cause that little meter wire from positive to meter would LIGHT UP and BURN !!! IF'n it shorted out ANYWHERE ALONG THE WAY

Re: Which BATTERY? AGM or EFB
Between the AGM and EFB Batteries, an AGM will generally so better at holding up to vibrations and what not when compared to a Flooded Battery. For you I would look things over like electrical connections and making sure the positive terminal isn't messed up. If it is then get a new one from Nissan. They are inexpensive and actually fit unlike the aftermarket ones at the auto parts store
