D4 Battery replacement. AGM or Calcium?

The D4 (2013 Commercial Diesel) battery is starting to fail.. the usual glow plug light in and clock loosing track if time .
Testing the battery it is ripe for replacement with 28% SOH!
Its an original JLR AGM battery that is currently fitted.

So the question is...
Do i fit another AGM or go with a Calcium one?

And i assume a BMS reset with the IID in either case would be prudent?

For an Exide EK950 AGM for the win Thumbs Up
Be sure to reset the BMS once you’ve fitted it Thumbs Up
