See Corrupt iPod Classic - Apple Community. The HDD stats aren't too bad, but the 168 pending sectors need to converted into reallocated sectors for your device to function properly. Restore, reformat, or DFU restore may take care of that.


See iPod Service Pricing - Apple Support for Apple's charge to replace the battery in an iPod classic. If that seems a little steep (it is) you can find the battery for a few $/£ on Amazon or eBay. I've renewed several batteries in iPod classics. The hard part is getting the case open, the rest is relatively easy. YouTube has videos that can show you how it is done.
