I just purchased a BMW OEM replacement battery for my e60. I haven't installed it yet. Should I return it and purchase the AGM battery? The cost seems to be about the same. Is this the correct part # ? 61217553954

Dealer replaced both factory batteries in my X3 and my 535 with the AGM and did a reprogram. This was done in about 4 hours. Good luck.
