When I experienced a sluggish start, it was the battery. In my experience, this car prefers Honda batteries. It’s been going strong for 3 years now. It’s also one of the more affordable batteries.
I still get my batteries from the dealership because they last the longest and cost the least, for some reason.
I drive a 2019 CRV and was thinking about a new battery, doing research man it seems like today's batteries don't last, I figured i got 6 yrs with a Honda so I stuck with their brand
Currently, a bit over 3 grand (labour included), at least for the Civic/Accord Hybrids.
Battery on my '22 HRV Sport died within the first year of owning the car. Honda agreed it was defective.
I have two Honda City and the first one had the battery changed after the first year, I knew this wasn't normal and Honda insisted that's perfectly normal.
It all boils down to the idling stop feature, to allow that feature these cars use a specific type of battery, but even then the idling stop completely destroys the battery, on top of being useless.
Some of these OEM batteries they choose to use are shit.
My '11 Fit had a aftermarket 151R battery. Mine occasionally produced a similar noise such as this on cold day starts. I think the noise stems from the starter, perhaps the starter solenoid that doesn't retract after you release the key from start position. My issue went away after I replaced the battery
Yes, very true. The closest you get to 100% SoC, the more the battery degrades. The ideal SoC would be at around 50-60%. But 80% is also good. (My EV has its lowest limit at 80%).
Honda batteries suck in general, bought a brand new one from the dealer and it was dead and wouldn't take a charge lol. I was willing to pay the extra cash for oem because I thought it would be better. Nope,
