I have a 2004 Civic Hybrid. 162,000 (with mostly freeway) miles. No complaints since no other mechanical problems, but hoping to not be at the mercy of the dealer. Any ideas on what I should expect to pay for an IMA battery? Are remanufactured batteries ok?

Still getting about 40 mpg. A local mechanic cleared the light, and it has been staying off, so I am not rushing in for the dreaded operation, but it does not seem to be acting quite as smoothly on charging cycles.

Thank you.
