    I'm honestly getting so frustrated with my Honda Accord right now, this is the second time in less than a year that I've had to jump start the thing and I'm pretty sure the battery is just completely cooked from this summer heat we've been having. Last time I went to some random garage near Al Quoz and they sold me a battery that clearly wasn't up to the task because it's already struggling to hold a charge and the car cranks so slowly in the mornings that I'm constantly worried it won't start at all. My cousin has a Civic and he's been telling me to just go to a specialist who actually knows what they're doing because apparently Honda's have specific requirements when it comes to battery specs and not all shops are aware of that. I don't want to keep throwing money at this problem every few months so I'm looking for a trusted Honda battery replacement in Dubai that won't sell me some cheap knockoff that dies in six months. Has anyone had a good experience with a particular shop or mobile service that actually knows these cars inside out? I'd rather pay a bit more for quality and peace of mind than keep dealing with this headache. Also does anyone know if the AGM batteries are worth the extra cost for an Accord or should I just stick with the standard ones? Really appreciate any advice from fellow Honda owners out there.
