Yesterday wife said 2006 rl showed "check engine oil level light" on. Called dealer could not give answer why. Today I started car and noticed it started slower. Called Acura and they told us they had put a new battery in car on 4/09. Checked battery and was weak according to my machines. Went down to the local Interstate battery outlet and got new battery. Dealer checked it and said had dead cell. Dealer told me here is your problem. "MADE in MEXICO. Was a Acura battery says 100 months. Told me Mexico made batteries are crap. They use inferior water in the battery and go out more than normal. Says you have to watch even some Interstate batteries are made there. Put new battery in and check oil light went out.

 

I've heard about not drinking the water but never anything about batteries.

Glad to hear you got it fixed.

 

Bottom line: their water makes you and your car not feel well...

 

Noted. Their food does a number on me as well, now their women (Spanish in general) on the other hand

 

I would lean more towards Brazilian, Colombian, or Argentinian women, but I get your point.

 

Yeah, it was a tough twist but I went for it anyway.
