'08 TL, weak engine start-up

Hi All,

This situation happened about a week ago and it's been occurring everyday since then.

I put the key in the ignition and when i start the car, it almost seems like the engine sputters slightly and everything dims...then the engine will abruptly start and everything will be ok. It seems the battery is working extra hard to provide juice or something during the startup. The first time this happened, I believe my navi reset because now it keeps asking me for a PIN code (which i dont have...?). Anyone else having this issue?

Thanks!

sounds like the battery is weak ... acura batteries are not so good ... should be covered under warranty by the dealer
