The problem is that when some cells start to go the others are close to dying themselves.
This creates what hybrid owners call "whack-a-mole". It's like the game of the same name. You figure out what modules have the bad cells, change them, then another module pops up with a bad cell, you change it, then another, you change it, then another.
It's best to just replace the whole thing with a brand new, high quality battery, unless you're just trying to get it to run so you can sell it.
