Battery OEM Honda or OEM Audi

My '11 Fit had a aftermarket 151R battery. Mine occasionally produced a similar noise such as this on cold day starts. I think the noise stems from the starter, perhaps the starter solenoid that doesn't retract after you release the key from start position. My issue went away after I replaced the battery

Yes, very true. The closest you get to 100% SoC, the more the battery degrades. The ideal SoC would be at around 50-60%. But 80% is also good. (My EV has its lowest limit at 80%).

I’d take a Honda battery over a Subaru one any day if the week.

It had a Honda battery in my Subaru for years

Based on these comments, I definitely replaced my battery last year wrong. I just ripped out the old one and slapped in the new one. I didn\u2019t code anything haha

Sounds about right for a dealership, just had my battery replaced at a euro shop and it was 448 total

The stock battery in my 2016 Honda died after four years.

Battery on my '22 HRV Sport died within the first year of owning the car. Honda agreed it was defective.

I have two Honda City and the first one had the battery changed after the first year, I knew this wasn't normal and Honda insisted that's perfectly normal.

It all boils down to the idling stop feature, to allow that feature these cars use a specific type of battery, but even then the idling stop completely destroys the battery, on top of being useless.

Some of these OEM batteries they choose to use are shit.
