Does 12v need to maintained when swapping for new battery.I am not worried about it messing up radio settings but does removing battery affect any critical function or car alarm.
Nope. Just need to drive it about 60 miles or so for it to reprogram to your driving style.

I did a write-up on the battery that should be used in our cars. Best one out there is the EverStart® Battery MAXX-94R which is carried at Wal-Mart.
