Why batteries fail in winter
Cold weather makes it harder for a battery to deliver power, just when the engine needs more of it to start. Lots of short journeys make it worse, because the battery never gets fully recharged. A battery that was struggling in the autumn will often give up on the first frosty morning.
Battery or alternator?
A flat battery isn't always the battery's fault. If the alternator isn't charging properly, or something is draining power while the car is parked, a new battery will soon go flat too. We test the battery, the charging system and the starter, then tell you what we found and the price.
Questions
Batteries: good to know
Can you test my battery before replacing it?
Yes. We always test it first, along with the charging system, so you don't pay for a battery you don't need.
Does my car need a special battery?
Some cars, especially ones with stop-start, need a specific type of battery, and some need it registering to the car after fitting. We check what your car needs and fit the right one.
How long does it take?
A battery swap is usually quick and often done while you wait. If we find a charging fault, we'll explain it and give you a price first.
Will you do work without asking me?
Never. We always call with a clear price first.
