I own a 2006 Honda Accord 4-dr, with a 2.4lt., 4-cyl engine. Last week, I had parked it in my parking garage for roughly 8 hours while was at work and when I went to retrieve it...my garage guys said they needed to jump start it because the car was not turning over. Actually, to prove their point they needed to jump start in front of me because when they took me down to the car...once again they could not turn it over.

I took it my Honda who tested the battery and it came up as bad on two separate tests...their suggestion was to change the battery.

My question is simply...how can this occur in a car that is only slightly over three years old (I bought the car in July of '06) with no tricked out sound system to drain power off the battery?

And also...which battery would be the best to replace the current one in the car and should I just to the repair myself or bring to a shop?

Thanks for your help...
