Q: Service battery issue
I have a mid 2009 white Macbook, 5,2. A couple of days ago I noticed the 'service battery' indicator was on, just a few days after upgrading to OS X 10.11.5 from 10.11.4. I'm thinking it may not be my battery but instead a problem with the Apple update. I know my battery is old but it has only 184 cycles. Coconut Battery shows 70.1% which I know is low. Can Apple look into this to see if the update is the issue? I have already ordered a new battery through Ebay (which is another issue). I think that battery may be (pretty sure it is) a counterfeit. Please help! Thank you.
MacBook (13-inch Mid 2009), OS X El Capitan (10.11.5)
