Car battery questions, answered
Common questions about car battery testing and replacement at our Frankton, Hamilton workshop.
Do you test car batteries for free?
Yes. We offer free electronic battery testing using the latest battery tester, and we give you a report on your battery’s condition.
How long does a car battery last?
Most car batteries last around 3 to 5 years. Short trips, lots of electrical accessories, cars that sit unused, and hot weather can all shorten battery life. A free test tells you how much life is left.
What are the signs my battery is failing?
- The engine cranks slowly when you start it.
- Clicking when you turn the key or press start.
- Dim headlights or interior lights at idle.
- The battery warning light comes on.
- The battery is more than 3 years old and you have had a flat start.
Do you have a battery to fit my car?
We stock a range of batteries to suit all vehicles. Cars with stop-start systems often need a specific battery type, such as AGM or EFB, and we make sure you get the right one. Call us on 07 848 1010 with your make and model.
Is it the battery or the alternator?
A flat battery can be caused by a faulty charging system rather than the battery itself. We can check both the battery and the charging system, so you do not replace a battery you do not need.
