Hey guys...my 07 TLS with 27k miles and just under 20 months old had battery issues this evening...called acura roadside assistance and the guy said the battery needs to be replaced as well as the connections...I'm going to call the Acura dealer tomorrrow and see what they say, most likely be willing to do the replacement etc under warranty


...in the case they don't offer/arent willing to replace it under warranty, what do you guys suggest replacing the OEM battery with and where (stores etc.) have you guys had your battery purchased/installed at

so far I'm looking into the Interstate Mega-Tron Plus MTP-24 as it's rated as the best Group 24/24F battery

any suggestions/help would be appreciated

Also...what "group" battery would work for the car/is recommended??

I think 24 is OEM group but would 35 or 65 work as well?

they should replace this under warranty, no problem.

it will in fact be all warrantee work, BUT they will replace that battery with a "new" one, cough cough "refurbished"

As others have said, with the newness of your car and relatively low miles this all should be done under warranty. They should give you a new battery (not refurbished) that I hear is much better than the original.

^ just like when the tranny blows they replace it with a new one

just purchase new battery and ask for reimbursement by calling ACURA CLIENT SERVCIES.

thats what i did but my battery was complete dead...good luck

Just got back from the dealer...they tested the battery etc. and replaced the battery under warranty...I would have gone the purchase my own/reimbursement route, but the battery I want isn't available in many places, so this was the quickest/most sensible solution
