Many thanks to all who offered suggestions on batteries. Drove
my 240D to Advance Auto thinking it had the two year old Advance
battery. I was wrong; it had a 7 year old Autozone battery.
Still planned to buy an Advance battery since it was the
cheapest with the rebate, but found that I would have to go
home, order and pay for the battery by email, and then go back
and get the battery.
Since I wasn't sure how many starts were left in the dragging
battery, I went on to Walmart and got one. (Sams club is about
30 miles further.) Total cost was $117.xx. It was the same size
as a group 49 battery but had a different number. The receipt
is in the car and I'll look up the group designation if anyone
wants to know.

I bought a battery from Advance Auto about 2 years ago. I
opened the cells at home and found one cell with no visible
electrolyte. The amount of distilled water it took to fill it
up would make it seem that the acid had been added but not the
water.
Advance Auto would not give me a different battery when I took
it back the same day. They said that they never open the cells
and that I should not have opened the cells.
The starter has been dragging for the past couple of days, so
I'm going down to Autozone and get it tested today. I've had
good luck with Autozone on batteries.

Any recommendations for a maker of good batteries these days?
Looks like the Auto Zone Gold battery in my wife's Infiniti
has died, just over three years old, only about 22k miles.
