I just replaced the battery in my 98 s70 T5 w/ a brand new Die Hard International. I get dead starts from time to time, I initially thought it was due to my factory battery and the recent frigid temp. I was wrong it still happens even w/ my brand new battery installed. Any suggestions?

Shot in the dark :

Have you wire brushed and cleaned your battery cables for good contact.
