Were those from a Honda stealership? And was that with your Hondarevs discount?

Kelk

Not from dealer no, but correct batteries and come with 4 year full guarentee

Simon - you got an extra year on me ..... with how long cars last in your hands - not sure worth the extra cash though!

Merry Christmas all.

The Civic VTi requires a quite bit of cranking if the fuel level is low!

So don't jump to conclusions that it's the battery, unless the cranking speed is low, the lights dim or such evidence.

Once you have the new battery in think about a trickle charger/battery conditioner. Most TVR owners have them and they are a good investment on weekend cars. I have one on my bike battery! But no in the S
