New battery keeps dying in 06 TL after a few days

have a 2006 Acura TL with around 130k miles. The battery keeps dying, I've exchange the battery for a new battery and I keep charging it after it dies. What could it be? Thanks

Also check to see if your alternator is functioning properly.

There is a DIY on Youtube

IIRC its How to install HFL or something like that. It should tell you which one to disconnect.

Replace the item yourself, it takes no longer than 15mins

This is from the thread posted above
"there is a VIN break on the product #. VIN numbers up to (ending in) 7A036477take the 1ZA, if it's after that, it's the 2ZA"
