This laptop is obsolete, so an official Apple battery repair is not possible.


The only vendors who are known to provide decent third party Lithium Batteries are from OWC or iFixit, however, even with these vendors there is still a chance of having battery issues since the quality of third party Lithium batteries is extremely poor. It is critical to properly calibrate/exercise the new third party battery.


Replacing the battery is a very difficult process so it is best to have the battery installed by a professional (OWC even recommends it). I have seen numerous posts on this forum where people ended up accidentally damaging the Logic Board, Trackpad, or even the new battery. The OWC video installation guide makes it look easy, but it is not easy.
