Do i need to turn off my car when changing battery or no
nice video, very annoying music
hey so i have a 2017 Accord lx with a 51r and its been giving me issues can i change to the 24f without issues?
The dealer who upgraded this battery from 51r to 24f did a great service. The 51r is not exactly holding a great reputation when it comes to accords in the northern states. The 24f though, from the V6, has no issues turning the motor over even in sub zero temperatures. Honda really needs to stop putting dinky batteries in their larger cars with small engines, and do customers right.
Me, I have a 2003 with a group 35 AGM, and a 2013 v6 with a 34r AGM. (Had to get a good battery during pandemic, but I am aware of 24f. So it's a stop gap).
