I'd double check that, yuasa agm are usually black and not silver, they may have changed recently but that was the case in the past.

I'm happy to be corrected, but I don't believe that the Yuasa YBX is an AGM Battery. The specification sheet for that battery states: Technology Ca/Ca

Calcium batteries are the most commonly fitted battery; they also go by the name of 'wet lead acid' batteries. The basic ingredients are no different to the old style, but these batteries are more durable and have more starting power. They have a good shelf life and are maintenance free.

Wiki States: Silver calcium batteries generally require more charging voltage (14.4 to 14.8 V) and deteriorate rapidly in vehicles which do not provide the required voltage range. (Alternators) which never reach required voltage range will cause rapid sulfation due to battery never being charged fully. As a general rule, silver-calcium batteries should not be installed to vehicles or systems which are not specifically designed for silver calcium battery chemistry.[citation needed] This also may occur with static chargers, some of which fail to charge these batteries. 2012 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Current

I've got exactly the same battery in mine. Fitted by the previous owner. I've got the receipt that says it was fitted 3 years ago. Touch wood no problems so far for me.

This I what I fitted in mine, same as original battery apart from JLR stickers.
