I called roadside and got it installed for 100 dollars 3 months ago.
Best upgrade I did for my fit was upgrading to a 51r battery. Just the other day I left my interior lights on all night and I didn't notice until I went to work in the morning, but it started up no problem.
Cells in the battery are probably done. Happened to my wife\u2019s accord. Said the battery was fine and wouldn\u2019t charge because she barely drives it since she works from home and recommended we get a battery tender. Come to find out the charge of the battery was fine but the cells were dead which is why it wouldn\u2019t charge. Time for a new battery.
I\u2019ve jumpstarted my 2019 freightliner from a Honda Accord before.
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 have gone through two batteries already. They seem to only last 3-4 years on this car - at least in my experience.
And the super small battery…
That happened to me when the battery was dying. The Honda OEM batteries suck.
I did have to buy a new battery because the OEM was leaking, but other than that, the vehicle has been great.
I replaced the battery on my wives 2009 honda accord. Started her up and it made this awful sound the second the AC kicked on. Bogged down the engine and made it run rough. It has never had AC issues until now and I'm sure it's coincidence with the battery changeout.
